warren t claim Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 One of my guilty pleasures every Friday is checking on there to see what their team of ace motor noters had dragged up from their classified ad section. I'm pretty sure I can't be the only shiter who pops over to have a look so I thought I'd start a thread on here so we can discuss the relative merits of their choice and maybe laugh at the comments some of their members have written. This week they've excelled themselves and put up a tidy Rover 825 for their well heeled, successful readership to enjoy. https://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?t=1762548 richardthestag, bolognasal spray, CGSB and 9 others 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beko1987 Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 Me and my boss read it every Friday at 10.05am after our 10am rolly break. It's nice enough, but most weeks I roll my eyes and think of a specific example where someone on here has had x car for £££'s less usually!

LostnotFound Posted August 25, 2018 Share Posted August 25, 2018 Cracking watch, although the fact even back then the only real selling point Rover could come up with was their history, its a bit damming really. AMC Rebel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fumbler Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 Shed of the Wekk is what I get weekly intake on as when my brother and father come home it's all they talk about. I look at them too. I likes the rescued banger racer Rover. Very nice interior Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My mate once bought an end of life (shagged) Montego for £100 to get him around when the engine went in his TR7, he sold it a few weeks later for £77.50 to four Scottish lads who used it to get back to Scotland from South Wales as it was cheaper than the train.

Essex V6 Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 With regards to the guy on the Blue forum buying the Bini to get home, I was surprised no-one had noticed/made the comment about the Proton Persona in the background of one of his photos. Then I rememberered it was the Blue fiorum I was now reading and not AS - suspect not a lot of interest from powerfully built directors in Protons inconsistant and FakeConcern 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I occasionally mooch around on there-some of the model specific subforums have avoided the cunts but I haven't posted for years.

HillmanImp Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 Some chap was asking about a Ford Puma on here a while ago and I mentioned that my manager was selling a good one down in Dreadhill shortly (although I think he maybe lives in Horsham). The conversation never went any further but the car in question was the shed of the week shortly after: https://www.pistonheads.com/regulars/ph-features-sheds/shed-of-the-week-ford-puma/37063 FakeConcern and BorniteIdentity 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nisfan Posted September 20, 2018 Share Posted September 20, 2018 I um and ah about buying £300 quid shitters so wouldn't be buying a bini for £750 to get home! Still a good read though beko1987 and FakeConcern 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
