Introducing the new New Bond Villain

AUSTIN VANDER PLAK

This is virtually identical to one I had back in the late 90's, even down to the Mk3 front spoiler. Mine did have an aftermarket beige vinyl roof though. 

 

If the MOT hadn't expired in 2012 I'd be sorely tempted, after all, if I'm to live up to my user name I really need some old BL chod like this. .

Remember on 'Family Guy' when Brian became a sniffer dog?

'The oil temp sensor has been disconnected...we're looking into this...the speedo unit is faulty and needs to be replaced at some point'

 

 

Hate to sound cynical, M8, but perhaps, just perhaps, try looking into it with your eyes, not a fucking reciprocating saw?

This is tempting with 12 months MOT. Fortunately I only have to resist it for a couple of days.

[Mr Laurence]

For £850, this is the cheapest mot’d and somewhat presentable manual Mk1 MX5 I’ve seen in a while. I doubt it’ll stick around long. It’s even a Eunos import, which now seem to be more desirable than the UK Cars.

(I’m tempted myself, but I’d rather wait and find a blue or a yellow one in slightly better shape, even if it meant spending a bit more)

[Wack]

These must be quite rare as the conversion cost a fortune

It never fails to amaze me how many of these   Farinas seem to have survived. The ad for this one does mention B*ngers, but it looks like it’s probably worth saving to me

Allegedly a totally original, never restored 34600km Authi ADO16 in sunny Mallorca. €4,800. Be a shame maybe to remove it from such an ideal climate, not that it's likely to be going far in the current circumstances.

Something about this makes me happy. I like a nice, straight early 90s everyday car. Nothing fancy, just a survivor. 

 

[Fabergé Greggs]

Somebody on here once promised me an explanation of how you change a clutch on these in 30 mins without removing the gearbox.

Last night, I dreamt that I transferred my engine and gearbox out of my omega into a manta, and turned it into a rally lookalike. 

And now you show me that.

F16.4 OR F16.5 gearbox for the win.  

I paid just 1.5 hours labour to have an F16.5C swapped on a mk2 cav Sri. 

And 35 mins to swap a clutch on a 1.8 mk3 cav. 

By law all maintenance tasks, should be certified by the European Union, and if the design is good, and maintenace can be done within 30 mins, you can get CE approval and if not, your car cant be sold in Europe. 

A cam.belt on an 8V OHC Vauxhall.engine could be done by a decent mechanic in 45 mins max, which is too long.

In fact, can someone please convince me NOT to put a cheeky offer in on this? I have no space and no requirement for another car and the money would be better spent on my existing vehicles. Yet these reasons are not dissuading me... I really, really like it for some unknown reason!

You should absolutely go for it! 

 

... so I don't have to.

[BorniteIdentity]

Remember those absolute LADZ who took their perfectly maintained motor cars through Deutschland and were apoplectic with rage when the Polizei took a differering view on standards of craftsmanship?

 

Tremendous standards of engineering here

 

Anyway, you can now BUY THIS CAR and complete the journey that our friends failed.  Think of it as a pilgrimage.

It's back on trimz now (at least) 

£1,750 - and it looks utterly fucked.

OH - and No V5. "It never arrived".  Classic.

[eddyramrod]

I'd want £1750 to take that away!

[scdan4]

This is sweet and with a very sensible advert.

You're on the wrong forum for discouragement, we're all going to try our best to persuade you to buy that, at least then it's 'in the fold' and we get a shot when you've finished.

[scdan4]

Hasn’t this design aged well
