Underside is surprisingly solid . 

Needs front floor pans and work at the top of the windscreen frame plus front sills have some holes....

That's got to be the same lump they put in the taxi-spec A60 Oxford, surely?

Pretty sure it is, a B-Series 1.5 litre

I had one of those as a WBOD just over a year ago.  Not a bad thing, although fuel economy was OK rather than brilliant and the leather* on the seats would have made a Project Drive Rover blush.  Reliable though, and comfy enough.  I didn't pay anything close to £750 for it mind.  It ended up going to £95 Peugeot when I'd finished with it.

Think it'd be a no from me!

Interesting reading. They had a tidy looking Cavalier GSi for sale for a good 12 months a while ago, along with a Cavalier Turbo. Both looked clean enough and recent MOTs looked pretty good. I'll assume they were bent then! 

Thing is, if I were buying a 30 year old Cavalier, I'd assume the worst before I'd stuck my head underneath to find no rear legs. I guess mqy buyers are more trusting though...

This does look very clean, but the price does seem too much for one of these...

Bloody nora.

If I could stretch my budget a bit* that would look fucking EPIC next to the Rover, as a replacement for the Focus... 😍

*nearly double
*never mind then

For the father with more children than eyes.

Image 1 - Toyota picnic petrol

I always imagine people like him to have his TV mounted to the wall in a portrait orientation.  FFS it's 2021 and still people do this.  It's not Instagram man, it's eBay!

Anyway, you might not know this but the Picnic is a very very very capable old thing and - actually - worth some good money.  Whether it got bid up high before because he's a scammer is down to you to decide.  But they're good cars, and every sikh man I've ever met will undoubtedly agree.

It appears to have the most subtle two-tone paintwork ever.

I have an inexplicable fondness for the Picnic (Ipsum in Japan). Toyota GB built this one-off Sport, complete with alloys off the Camry Sport. I still have a set of the latter so it could be recreated.

Inspired by the above, I built a 1:24 version which will probably be the closest I'll ever get:

Nice to see you back SL :) 

 

I'm sure that Picnic also had Celica GT4 running gear?  or did they do another one?
