That Corsa is probably the best thing anyone is going to find on eBay for a while. Utterly, utterly fantastic. 117/3.

"Barn find Vauxhall corsa b 1.4 Sri max power modified with big stereo project "

Presumably put in a barn to hide the owners embarrassment.

Sorry but that is absolutely awesome. If I get it I promise to give you a passenger ride. Just think how cool* we'll look doing a fly by at the local maccies.

No shit-food, no screen-time, just a comfy ride home from school.

One of these cars is twice the price of the other. Which makes one of them a bargain.

That Corsa is ace, if I had the dough/time/space etc I'd buy it and convince myself it's 'an important piece of motoring history', or some similar guff.

"Fly by," only if I'm wearing a disguise and some serious ear defenders,  parked in the middle of Thurnscoe (mid way between us) after dark, I'll give it a miss !

Look at the sun strip ffs. Needs some tsw venoms and this on the jukebox. Ellesse jumper and some air max on. Strawberry milkshakes and big macs await. C'mon, I'm painting some serious dreams and pictures here.

This is lovely, and not ridiculously priced either:

Agreed not a bad price. But there are import costs to add. More if you do not do it before the end of December (maybe)

I actually prefer this one still located in Spain. A Phase 1. Not original seats.

Not again. Car number 2 that should be purchase to save the rest of us from viewing repeats. At least this is not quite so hideous as the Austin.

I want to like the Dodge but dearly love the Toyota

Christ that's rough. 

900 isn't far off the mark, but considering shagged paint, need for a new rear bumper, and suspicious messy black sill ends that suggest it could have been bodged or welded badly, I'd think that's more a £650 example. 
However - importantly, it appears to be a manual. 

If it was an auto it'd probably get bought to break for parts - hell, it might anyway. 

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Honda-Civic-classic-1989-89000-miles-on-the-clock-sound-mechanics/333816876743?hash=item4db9094ec7:g:vLcAAOSwJX5fzhWK

The seller clearly has no idea how to eBay as they've added a whole another listing for this car, purely to add four photos, one of the rear bumper, two of the sills, and one of the driver's seat bolster.

This confirms my suspicions that it's fucked - it needs sills, tyres, upholstery, a rear bumper and trim panel, and probably a cambelt. And what's the betting it HGFs too... 

However it also confirms it's a manual, which is pretty much its only saving grace.

The price has changed too, it's gone from 900 BIN/offers, to 700 auction/1000BIN.


700 is top dollar for it as it needs a fuckton spending on it to make it good. 
The MOTs being clean as they are is absurd.

Nostalgia posting. How are the fallen greats getting along?

When I was small and all this was fields the top dog fastest bike forever was the zzr11, which would do a genuine 170mph with its ram air and slippery* aerodynamics.

This is the cheapest considerable one on the bay. It’s A bit chavved but seems loved and fundamentally sound. Turn up in jeans with a lid and Ride home faster than a premium German saloon can muster on its best day. The top end rush on one of these combined with absolutely mental airbox / induction noise is really something special.

£2750 bin  / 170mph = 16 £ per mph.
