Some Shite old car adverts


Recommended Posts

I particularly like the Ford advert "what happened when Ford motorsport breathed on an Escort" Ford reckon "the RS1600i was born"I reckon "their breath turned to condensation on the car and it started to rust"

'6 passenger' cars for the Dacia??Hows that work then?

Posted

When i read that i read it as say 6 different models but know I've re-read it, it seems to imply 6 seater's? They didn't have a bench front seat did they?.Also just done a DVLA check on the two Dacia's, 611 lasted until 1990 and 612 was until 1991, So they lasted surprising well.

Almost sure they had conventional seats in the front. Renault 12 didn't have bench seats and I can't imagine Dacia would have fitted them?First garage I ever worked in (in about 1992) had formerly been a Dacia franchise back in about 1983 and still had a few manuals and such like kicking about. Not seen one for years though.

LOL that rentals one is pure class!I love the badly-spaced tin plates on their 'flagship' models, even the Porka. I reckon there's some prize picks in 'band F'!

I'll have the Goof GTI - purely because it'll be an early Mk2 on an A plate, and at £31.50 and a day in a lockup with some tools there's several very rare panels and parts that the Edition38 crew will cream their pants over and make me a huge profit.

Band B is a tricky one:Rusty and unreliable.Rusty.Rusty and unreliable.Rusty.But I think I'd go for the Sud.

You're all FOOLS.I'll take the Renault high-roof minibus (a Master, yes?) with the orsum samba windows, and then the blonde bit stood next to the Metro.

I quite fancy the "Dempsey and Makepeace" Ezzy ragtop in the background.
