Excellent! Great to see the seller being completely honest about it too. Be nice to think it has a happy future, preferably staggering on without its appearance changing.

I stuck a cheeky snipe in last night, for £165, I have won it for £155! The as says its 'very rusty' but i thought it had the air of a fairly straight one, even if it was scruffy, so i'm taking a bit of a chance on it. If its got galloping rot, i'm certainly not spending weeks welding it up! But at £155 it must be the cheapest one of those on the bay for a good few months so its worth a gamble I reckon.

Went to collect this last night. Came home without it, it was ROTTEN. it lokoed pretty decent on the outseide but the inner rear arches were non-existent. outer sills looked great but inner sills were gone, all the way along. Fornt valance disappeared completely. A real shame as it had very few dents and was in its original paint all over. 44k and loads of bills and history. Engine bay was immaculate and the engine was running super sweet. It would be a good project if i had not done any welding for a long time, but was a serious metalwork project (for which absolutley no panels are available) and I could not be doing with another of those. I paid the sellers fees and came home again. The seller was sound, he didnt mind, if he had kicked off I would have taken it cos he did say in the ad it had bad rust problems. Anyway after paying his fees and my petrol I spent £50+ to not buy anything ! Can't go doing that too often.

Awesome.

When I was still a teenager buying my first cars so may looked like this; doggy, full of filler and rusty. You just don't see them like this any more, more's the pity.

You just know that any magazine article about the Quantum would have been hilariously titled "Quantum Physics".

 

One of a couple of 216's on at the moment:

Chances of disastrous amounts of rot lurking?...

 

Saw one on the road last weekend, to be seen on here soon.

 

BTW, is that van in the background a Kia Pride? Surely Mazda didn't do a 121 van, did they? Can be seen again in a pic for the seller's splendid Omega.

Or you could have a shot of it jumping over a hill, "Quantum Leap".
