If you want a quick sale and it's cheap...

*joking

It’s goes forever in a circle in my head

1) I hardly drive it

2) Think about selling

3) but it’s so good to drive and listen to so I can’t sell it

4) life happens and return to number 1

I’ve had it six years. Chances are 1-4 will be going round my head well into my dotage (if my legs still work)

The sound of a VR certainly is addictive. I don't blame you!

£1200, a mistake or a bargain?

This car isn't or wasn't in Burton on Trent, it's in the car park behind the Old Crown in Cavendish Bridge / Shardlow.

It goes to the CoOp in Donington regularly. The owner, whose name escapes me, has lunch in the Crown most days and is also selling his Oldsmobile Toranado. A two tone monster that's also been on these pages, ostensibly being sold by some classic car mob in Leicester. That'll just leave him pottering about in his scruffy K reg Olds 98. Any idea how much I should offer him?

And I know fuck all about the big green Merc.

It’s less than half a mile from my house and I walk past it regularly. Would have it myself but I haven’t offloaded the Renner 19 yet.

£3bags

"The Austin is one off [of] the best money can buy [no it isn't] there is [are] 5 left on the British roads [in that case @vulgalour and I own 40% of them] and I would say this could be the best.The shell is absolutely unbelievable no rust! The car has been fully wax oiled and dry stored for 26 years only covering 6000 miles. There are couple of tiny spots on the body work and the driver rear wheel arch has started to blister but hey guys these rusted away after 6 years from new it’s 32 years. [So no rust then, yeah?]

I understood there was an issue with a change of regs recently where a NOVA or similar paperwork can only be carried out by the importer of the vehicle, and there are a list of approved importers.  Anyone other than that (EG a private individual) is no longer able to do the paperwork themselves.

There's apparently already a "tame" importer who will do the paperwork for a £95 fee, but it's still yet another bloody hoop.

I'd quite like it tho...

or perhaps sir prefers one in red? or why not both :mrgreen:

Rubbish pics, but might be worth a look?

'87 Cadillac Sedan DeVille advertised for 950 quid. I've actually spoken to the owner of this who used it as advertisment for his burger van, offering my help to get it running. He doesn't have any knowledge about car mechanics/electronics at all and decided against dumping money into it, so instantly assumes the worst. Unfortunately it does have the 4.1 which is not a great engine, at what he says 87k miles this might not mean all doom and gloom though, he never had a battery on it to even try.

At this price it's hard to lose and I'd give it a go myself but it's not like I don't have enough projects yet. Happy to facilitate any deal and help getting it up and running though.
