steve_earwig Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Mk.1 blue oval. Not blue circle, Red Square or Bermuda Triangle. Banger Kenny, Christine and TRW 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tamworthbay Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 From what he was replying to can we guess it's a mk1 escort? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eddyramrod Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 If it's been used as a kennel, and it's coming from a farm, it's reasonable to expect a van. Mk1 Transit, therefore. Twiggy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Split_Pin Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Whatever it is, the farmer will want £8000 for it. laser wheels, Banger Kenny, cobblers and 8 others 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trigger Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 I'm guessing it's a Mk1 Mondeo Estate with a chewed up interior full of fleas. Christine, Pillock, srad34 and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cavcraft Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 If it's a Mk1 Focus, leave it there and take the dogs instead, they'll be a nicer ride than the car. Pillock, anonymous user, cobblers and 5 others 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spike60 Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Don't get your hopes up too high if he says "needs a clean", it probably has been sat on it's belly in mud since 1981 where it was parked after the kids got bored with ragging round the fields. You obviously haven't seen it. eddyramrod 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greengartside Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 I'm thinking a Mk1 Ka. Red with sheep dog piss in the back which would have rotted the fuel filler cap and sills out in half an hour. Lacquer Peel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRW Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Pessimistic mofo's you lot. It'll quite obviously be a Mk1 Orion Ghia injection, having been loved all its life like farmers do with everything. Probably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eddyramrod Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 I used to work for a family firm, the family consisting of two farming brothers and one who ran the produce-market side. One of the farming brothers had at least two, possibly three cars tucked away in tumbledown lockups around the yard, only one of which I ever saw in the flesh. That was a 1977 Volvo 244. The others were a Pageant Blue Maxi and a white XR3, or possibly XR3i. I never saw that one, and only had a glimpse of the Maxi, but as far as I know, they're all still there. At least a decade later! Farmers sell nothing unless they can see a market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BavarianRetro Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Farmers in my experience, whilst professing disinterest and lack of concern in monetary value, know the value of every single possession to the last penny. Nobody ever left a farmyard clutching a new possession, leaving behind a befuddled farmer who has sold it for less than its worth. Ever.

oldcars Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 that interior is horrific mate. Good luck with the cleaning of that. Whats the plan? Does it involve a gallon of unleaded and a match? michael t and Banger Kenny 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dave21478 Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 I can smell it from here. Also....whats the black tube in the boot running from the side trim through the floor? thats never the fucking petrol filler is it?1 - I cant believe I have never seen in a Focus boot before.2 - I cant believe any designer with anything like pride in his work would have the pipe protruding into the load space like that. trigger and cobblers 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave21478 Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Aye, so it is - the pez filler is on the right. Still a bit crap though, especially if its a factory install? The rest should come up ok with a bucket of water, a handful of dish sponges, some cillit-bang and a rubber grooming brush to lift the hairs. Gotta wonder if its worth the effort though.

dave21478 Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Good luck. The Kosovan Kar Kleaners and every other valeting place I went to told me to fuck right off when I tried to get this cleaned.... Did it myself as above with a rubber grooming brush, cillit bang, a sponge and soapy water. TRW, Christine, Sigmund Fraud and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
