I will ask him what the script is with it all. I don't think he'd go looking for one for you but if you found one in sure he could arrange the transport.

Do you harbour fantasies of impersonating the Ant Hill Mob? Step this way...

How is it legal to drive that on a car licence?

More than 30 years old, daft but true.

Mind you, being East Lancs bodywork it'll probably collapse the first time it hits a pothole in the road.

Yes daft but true. There are now what I would consider fairly modern buses becoming thirty years old (see above) but when the law first came in most thirty year old buses were, if not actual half cabs, very dated with manual boxes, or pre-select or crash boxes and possibly no power steering and anybody could get in and just drive off (but with no more than eight passengers and not for hire or reward). Whereas a modern bus where you get in press drive and can steer it with one finger you had to pass all the relevant tests. Always seemed a bit back to front to me, but I've made good use of it over the years so I'm not complaining. 

Plus one on the East Lancs comment. That thing looks very similar to the East Lancs Dominators that Southampton brought in to replace the Routemasters. I did a bit of a double take when I saw it. It's not one as ours had flat top deck front screens but it's very similar. Our East Lancs Atlanteans were hilarious with bits of aluminium plate or brackets being riveted on in ever more places by the end but you could still sit almost anywhere and watch different bits of the body moving indepently of each other.

The comment in the listing about leaky windows won't be because of the rubber seals, it'll be because the body has moved. And they want more than £3k?

Seems almost suspiciously cheap for such an apparently clean shell

Possibly because it is a saloon* and “everybody” wants a hatchback?

**Don’t recall ever seeing one of these.

Most classic bread and butter Renaults are unfortunately not worth a lot. Broken ones are worthless.

Second time, and I’ve found the add. What’s not to like- Italian food and it’s cheaper than the jag too!
