eBay tat volume 3.


Recommended Posts

They used to be the classic 200 banger. I had a £150 crusader with big chrome wheels and 12 months mot on it. It drove well too. Those days are long gone.

My dad had a new 1.6L estate in 1978, replaced his Mk3. The Mk4 was (sahara?) beige and we all loved it. Both (PEM 120T and ONB 903P) still on database, but probs long gone.

There must be thousands and thousands of listings on eBay right now, but this is surely the shittest.

It must be 100% impossible not to wake up half-pissed and stick your knob through the back window of this.

maybe for the lighting collector who wants to advertise they have a 10W SOX lamp for sale? LOL

(they are quite rare and sought after, being the smallest SOX lamps made commercially, I have tried a number of times over the past 10 years to get one but always been outbid when they crop up)

That is one ugly looking car.

 

The front nose looks like a Seirra, that's been in an accident.

The back end looks like an americ a n version of the mk2 cavalier convertible, and not in a good way. 

They're not the most inspiring Mustang to look at, but they're still a sight better than the Mustang II.

I always thought the earlier Fox-body Mustangs were a better looking car, at least from the front.

I don’t mind a Fox body, bizarrely, but the rag tops really do look grim.

The hardtops look ok...... provided they’re pepped up with a set of billet 5 spokes, and preferably  have a screaming 347 Windsor under the “hood”

Pointing in or out?

I'm guessing that mustang has the 2.3 4 cylinder 85 bhp power house. I don't think I've seen one like this as original normally they have daft wheels or An eagle flying an F16/Abraham Lincoln wrestling a bear airbrushed on the bonnet.

This has to be set against an entire era of generally uninspiring US car design, so it probably fitted in quite well.

Excuse me?  Have you ever in your life seen any one car anywhere in the world that was designed after that was made?   And you still call this ugly??????  Yes there seems to be a bit of Sierra influence, which helps in no way at all, but bearing in mind this was an update of a ten-year-old design it could be a lot worse.

Can confirm those Altos are positively tiny;

The number plate is a good indicator of scale, but that's my old one in my council lockup.

If you squint, and stand far enough away, it looks a bit like an R129 SL from the front..
Or maybe I need to go to bed
Are you drunk?

While it is in every way utterly ruined - the interior is a particular joy - that is nowhere near as rotten as I'd have expected.  Doesn't Ratdat have the only other one that still exists?

.....somebody bid £310 for this

"bmw 735i Project Barn Find Spares Or Repair"

Maybe it was the outbreak of honesty that swayed the bidders "bmw 735i been stood in field "

Some of the recoverable spares from that are worth it - the chrome door mirrors are like hen's teeth (unavailable new since the early 1990s) and are particularly sought-after by E24 Six owners.
