Strictly speaking it doesn't even need a screen as long as you can live with the crack - it's MOT exempt innit.

Autoshite legal advice question.

Sure, many vehicles are MoT exempt. However is it still an offence to drive an unroadworthy vehicle, regardless of if it is exempt?

Yes it is, but it is highly debatable whether a crack in the windscreen would render a vehicle unroadworthy.  Unless it's completely spidered right in front of the driver obvs.

This looks well, only £620 so far, no reserve. But look at that fucking monstrosity in the background!!!

What makes me laugh about this is how the seller has deliberately taken pictures from angles that show off the rest of his admirable* car collection. It's a common theme through his other ads as well, (except one which has a Transit van, which, frankly, I'd much rather drive than anything else he owns...). 

How vain and poser-y can one person get?!

Grecian columns the size of pylons and a fuggin' chandelier hanging outside above the front door are also LoL worthy.

Poss a good place to ask - does anybody have a classic auctions calendar? I have ACA and Manor Park in the diary over the next few weeks, but there must be loads of others.

Chop the roof off and you don't need a windscreen so Biggles glasses and a flying helmet will do.

Usual suspects at the moment, and who knows if any of the 'event' sales are going to happen, but...

Isn't that colour Silver Fox

...metallic? Yes, Dad had an estate for a while in that colour. Always finished 1st in the LP races (not sure it was actually LP though)

For just £695, you can own this professional* quality device, which absolutely isn't just a taxi sawn roughly in half with a jigsaw and a towing hitch bolted to the end. Never mind the fact you could buy a whole one for that with change.

Here is a cheap slightly broken Insignia, but unusually it's not a 2.0 CDTi with a blocked oil pickup, it's a 1.8 pez with a missing third gear.  Posting it mainly because I think it's rather nicely photographed for a cheap eBay snotter.

OK the price is ludicrous, but how fugging cool is that?  It's even an Autobianchi for added shite points - I thought they'd stopped badging them as Autobianchis with the facelift.

4x4 Lancia Y10 with a disapproving man in a doorway, already at an unreasonable price with 6days left.

LOOK WITH YOUR EYES, NOT YOUR HANDS!

I was going to ask why you would even bother making such a small car 4WD, then remembered Lancia is part of Fiat.

Thus, it's probably a Panda 4x4 underneath. Maybe...?

Fascinating wee thing, either way.
