I had one almost identical to that for 7 years. Only cost was fuel, MoT which it always passed, tax, insurance and tyres. Best car I ever owned, easily.

Eventually got sold because the rear seat belts were too short for a rear facing baby seat.

Great little cars to drive because they weigh nothing.

....or indeed suicidal?

Apparently this was a working example not that many years ago but, like so many others, got laid aside as its owner became overtaken by other things.

I see the seller refers to it as "Grandad's scrap", so clearly has no love for his relative's hoardings.

Man, that Mazda. Electric windows, height adjustable seat, 2-litre engine. That's plush.

I do hope it comes with Eric Olthwaite's coal shovel, precipitation chart or a racing vulture.

At about 12:00 in.

It were always raining in Denley Moor, 'cept on days when it were fine, and there weren't many o'them, not if you include drizzle as rain, And even if it weren't drizzling, it were overcast and there were a lot of moisture in the air.

 

That must be crusty then

I think we can take the rest of the description with a pinch of salt.

Just saying "old Fiat, rusty" would have been a perfect description.

Yes, but not sure how he could guarantee this bit:

Its never had any welding repairs, nor will it need any.

I assume he means it won't need any to become roadworthy, but I did have to laugh at that! 

 

I guarantee it'll need some welding at some point
