Event Morris Leslie Motor Auction - 18th February

[Supernaut]

I'm not sure if I'll make it along tomorrow

Aaaw. Shame, that.

[rantingYoof]

The 1.8 Sierra GLX needs to be bought!

[17-Coffees]

Me & Supernaut will be there, along with two friends (who arnt into shite cars sadly). 

 

I had my eye's on the Yugo, but sadly been told Im not able to store another car next with the LS400 due to the space having been taken up.

Damm shame.

That Omega is a 2.0 and judging by the headrest arrangement a CDX. MOT until July with a history that should make anyone approach cautiously.

 

I hope the red S-Class is a 460.

[BavarianRetro]

Avoid that early S class like the plague.

[JeeExEll]

That red Plymouth looks mega tasty.

Any info on the black Mk1 Capri, I can't access auction catalogue for some reason.

 

Edit, found it.

Lots of interesting stuff including a late 70s XJ-S auto on about page 6.

 

Link to classic cars catalogue page 1.

Every time I've been the cars have been really expensive.

[Guest Breadvan72]

That 1980s V12 XJS has a surprisingly low estimate.  The brown colour may be an issue (even on AS a brown XJS may be a step too brown), and maybe it is crusty.

[Richard]

I've just arrived, where might I find other shiters?

[DSdriver]

All shiny-shiny-buyme-buyme... except the Citroen CX natch. Its a good job I'm a long long way away because I can hear it calling me, even in Kent.

[Supernaut]

Sorry Richard! We saw your car outside when we were leaving...

 

 

 

 

This Jaguar XJS was soooo Autoshite.

 

 

 

 

I've never seen a Mazda 121 based on the facelifted version of the Fiesta before. Seen plenty of 'sad face' ones though.

 

 

 

 

Metro Vanden Plas!

 

 

 

 

 

A rather tasty BMW M5. I loved it even more because PERPL!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Yugo close-ups!

 

 

 

 

 

Now for the highlight. An Olsmobile Delta 88... DIESEL.

 

 

 

[Lacquer Peel]

That Olds diesel needs to go home with me. Wonderful.

[17-Coffees]

I really wish i was able to get the Yugo, as i had a good plan for it.

Essentially I was wanting it to take to a few local shows, then I'd have roffled here. Then announce the winner at Shitefest. I'd have been mad enough to drive it 440 miles to the event! 

 

Did have a good poke around it though...

Me dreaming of a possible life with the greatest car of the former Yugoslavia! 

[Guest Lord Sward]

What were the prices like?

[Split_Pin]

I snapped that Metro in January 2014 in Banknock looking quite sorry for itself. Nice to see it's had some love.

[pompei]

Did the Yugo sell?
