Mally Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Cheapest one I can find online for sale right now is £1000 more! Is it really that bad? Certainly doesn’t look like it. I can’t take a whole day out of my life to get this, which is frustrating but pretty typical. £1,000 saving and you can't have a day off.How much a day are you on?

BorniteIdentity Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 £1,000 saving and you can't have a day off.How much a day are you on?Haha. That really made me laugh. And I never discuss money, religion or politics. I’d like it. I’d have to fill it up whilst running or I’d get marooned at a petrol station for half an hour - on top of the 10 hour round trip. cpjitservices 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HillmanImp Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Christ......I need to stay away from alcohol until this sells, which to be fair is probably only going to be a couple of hours. richardthestag 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bucketeer Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 I'm currently checking every pocket and rooting down the back of many metaphorical sofas trying to get enough money together. I have big want. Edit - bugger, too late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gadgetgricey Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 If whoever is the lucky purchaser is collecting by train, remember to use split ticketing.com. When I collected the Merc off HMC a couple of weeks back it saved me a bloody fortune. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BorniteIdentity Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 That was quick. Cheapest one I can find online for sale right now is £1000 more.I’m almost certain that these two factors are related. I hope it’s someone bringing it closer to civilisation, but I’m certain this is the last time something like this will ever be £600.

HMC Posted February 16, 2018 Author Share Posted February 16, 2018 Wartburg 1.3s for sale, one of the last made in 1990. IFA made under lisence vw engine ( 4 stroke) Lovely car, very nice paint, very nice interior, runs and drives a treat. I was told the sunroof needed looking at, I've left it alone and it doesn't leak. No rust bubbles on the body and nice filler free wheel arches etc. I'll put up some proper pics this weekend. A brilliant curiosity you could rock up to a car show in as is and be very happy. Thought I'd offer it on here before I try car and classic, test drives/ border crossings/Stasi stake outs etc welcome.
