What if I'm dead tomorrow?

I know exactly where that is, it's very close to the centre of Manchester, I've passed it on deliveries before.

 

Doesn't look terrible in the flesh. Needs a clean though, and it's currently stored outdoors (wonder how long that's been the case). It's on tarmac at least.

I was chuckling about ‘Every Silver Cloud has a new headlining’ when I went to bed last night and it’s still amusing me now. It’s too perfect. Just imagine it combined with Bob Monkhouse’s impeccable timing and delivery for example. I think it could be the absolute pinnacle of car jokes.

How fucking deluded must one be to spend £16,995.00 on this?

Well, you got room for a brain in your head, you know.

 

Jayzuz wept.

If that was a genuine 1960s Peel then the price would be reasonable(ish), but it’s a replica which you can buy new for that price, and the new ones even have a reverse gear!

17 grand for what would hardly be acceptable as a portaloo is bloody insane no matter how you look at it.

The number of caravans in the background of for sale pics is generally a good sliding scale indicator of how worried you should be about buying a car.

 

1 caravan: Probably an old couple.

2 caravans: are these lunatics then these people selling this car?!

3 or more caravans: well this is obviously circus folk or travelers who will probably want to throw knives at me or demand a bare Knuckle boxing match, which when lost leads inevitably to them demanding all my money before handing me a photo of a car and demanding positive feedback.

 

Although I'm easily racist enough to agree with you on a general principle, in this case the detailed knowledge of the seller makes me believe it's not being fenced by a bunch of knackers.

Someone else was selling that for £500 a few weeks ago.

If the new owner is selling it for the same amount it must be pretty awful.

Ten thousand pounds for an Austin A60 is equally mental. See also: RWD Ford Escort. I fail even to be amused by crassic car prices now, or the old phrase 'its worf wot sumone will pay 4 it m8'.

 

This phrase neatly sums up how stupid people actually are.

Floppytop R8.  Not much in the way of useful pictures as the seller appears to have used up most of their allowance with photos of screenshots of the MOT history.  :?

Has anyone ever successfully fitted an OHV Herald/Spitfire engine in a Trumpet Mayflower before? Might actually be possible to make one usable. Always fancied one.

2.0 Pinto with a carb. Doesn't seem a bad deal for a grand if it's clean. It's just a big Sierra.
