eBay tat volume 3.

Recommended Posts

The timing is all wrong for me to attempt to bid on this and it is a very long way away, which is annoying. I have a sneaking feeling that it will go through at just under £2000, which is very cheap for a running XK8 with MOT. These cars are an utter minefield of potential problems though. You either have to pay very little or be very, very careful buying (rust, gearbox, rust and timing chains). Damn they are pretty though (this has the wrong wheels, but still). I'd have a mean set of X300 XJR allys for it.

Just checked and this sold for £1600. Damn...

For some bizarre, completely unfathomable reason, I have watchlisted this crate. Great read by the way - sounds like the seller needs to be alerted to this place post haste

I believe the seller and excellent writer upper of this heap may be joining As after 

messages suggesting he should.

I wouldn't worry too much about an early funeral at 49k I certainly won't be buying it and I doubt anyone else will either

....and if ye do buy it, 'tis your own funeral.

 

 

New listing for this early Mk2 saloon.

That in itself piqued my interest, however look beyond the assorted shades of brown and beige and witness the sheer joy of the DIGITAL DASH.

Never knew the Cavaliers had digi-dash options, still less see one. Ye learn something new every day.

They didn’t. They especially didn’t in 1.6L flavour.

 

Nice old bus though.

Car is nothing to do with me, but this looks like a nice little project, for all the early Ford lovers out there.

I saw this on Autotrader about a week ago(it must be sold by now?)

£400, high mileage, no MOT, problem with bonnet, power steering leak. Open to offers?

Shit, i dont think that is the link^^^^^^^^? oh wait, yep the link works.

 

Edit - Im pretty sure it should have Alloys, being the Ghia.

Things like this go in 'ebay tat volume 3'. The powers that be don't like it when people start new topics for ads they've seen etc.

I guess Admin/mods can move this thread.

We used to have a thread where you could post pictures of women you liked the look of but that's been deleted so sex , no , no interest in religion so I've not noticed any threads

 

It's pretty much cars but it is a car forum and free from the B word , not bastard or bollocks , that's ok
