Is the steering that vague that it needs a compass in front of the speedo?

Not vague, just unnervingly light. I had a long conversation with the previous owner of that car a while back, as he wanted to buy my 404. He is a Norwegian and that was his wedding car in Norway, he had it for 15 years or something and drove it to the UK when he moved here. I think it might even have been his first car which is pretty cool.

I'm no expert on these, but the image of a Badger's rear end has just come to my mind.

I hope you're referring to the terminally-rusty blue estate and not the carefully-preserved, aged-like-a-fine-wine 99% rust-free hatchback which anyone on this forum would be proud to own?

I've already scratched the SE5 itch but it feels itchy again.

The sum total of the description

it is what it is

Makes me wonder if I'd ever be able to buy a car that is what it isn't.

Seems to have been sitting there quite a while, on French plates too.

If that rotbox could be made road legal again, registering it could be fun*.

Meh, it's already road legal, it's from 1978. Registering a Citroen is easy whether it has a CG or not, the club will do a letter for free if you're a member.

I mean, I definitely wouldn't, that thing is a complete shed but I guess importing a good one from France probably isn't viable anymore so who knows? The fact that it's an Ami, it's cheap and it's only a couple of miles from me and I HAVEN'T bought it should tell you all you need to know, though. In other words, it is what it is.

That CF has been doing the rounds, has lost its rear body since it was on eBay a year or so back

Probably the worst advert I've seen for a while.  But no facts to debate. £1000 for an 84k 2.5 is a reasonable price. Looks clean from the one picture. 

I bet the last car they sold was in 1998 via Manchester evening news. When you paid per word.

When you first register on eBay now, you automatically get a user name like that, think it's based on part of your e-mail address and a load of random characters, then once registered you can change it to something sensible (or not bother, as in this case)

That's quite an achievement considering they just punched the keyboard when setting up the ebay username.
