Ex Tracky, (that's Barnsley based Yorkshire Traction to southerners, now part of Stagecoach), still in their colours and a steal at that price. Apart from finding spares (Plaxton bought Duple, shut it, and built the last 425s in France) and that front screen will not be cheap, if I had the space, I might risk divorce......

That appears to be a very good deal. Ticks all the boxes you would want from a 75 (aside from the gearbox); 2.5 V6, Connoisseur trim and a tasteful colour. 

From the torpedo badges and real wood trim it looks like a pre-project drive car which had been sitting around for a while before being registered, so another selling point right there.

That is lovely...but it sold for a third of that asking price a few weeks ago.

 

Although to be fair it was a non runner at the time.  Still a healthy mark-up mind.

That dash is dashing! Don't tell the scene boys, but it comes with a free Feu orange air freshener.

I’m going to claim the “most illiterate piss poor “ category with this beauty. Absolutely everything about it is wrong.

if that’s not enough for you the rest, though mercifully brief, is equally incorrect, puzzling, worrying...

I got all excited when I spotted a Jag XJR for £800 in his other items for sale.  Turns out it's not an XJR at all, it's just a shagged old 3.2.

Conclusion: plonker.

Fair point, I’d forgotten that bit.  No objection to someone earning a crust if they’re adding a bit of value as they do so.

Had a couple of these years back (as well as a 200 and a 250E) which were pretty much all dreadful things.  Seriously tempting, though...

Always fancied one of those, but the thought of a highly-strung 40-year-old 2-stroke twin and early '80s Yamaha build quality doesn't fill one with confidence admittedly.

That Farina (M.O) you posted about the other day in Manchester is still available. Trouble is he wants it gone tomorrow and I can't get there nor put anyone on it to collect.
