I shouldn't look in this thread as I'm a sick man and I can't help myself for bad life choices. I'd love that.

Has been for sale for months now (was posted here for 2500 originally). I'm afraid even 1100 is still asking too much here in the UK.

Are parts likely to be hard to obtain, or just not a big following for this stuff? I'd have thought someone like Rockauto could supply a gasket set.

Rockauto - radiator,  head gaskets, head bolts.  So no excuses, and remember RED VELOUR.

After my post I went straight on there, priced up the job, and thought for about £200 that's got to be worth it 🤣

Somebody buy my BX so I can buy this please 😅

Wasn't the Estelle side-hinged? Yes I know it's the 'boot' and the engine is in the rear. I'm just trying to win on a technicality.

Bingo.

If we're being pedantic, the Rover P3, Wolseley 6/80, Morgan 4/4 etc.  are centre hinged.

Excellent, Škoda wins then.

Amended to what my mind always fills in with when people start spunking words out at random but with complete confidence that it makes sense 😅

That number plate is unbelievable.

What's this in the passenger footwell? Belt driven thing (dynamo??) with Health & Safety cooling fan/bread slicer?

I bought an entire reconditioned cylinderhead for the supercharged 3800 in a Riviera for a friend once on Rockauto. Couldn't believe you could still get one for what is a 25 year old car, as common as the engine might be. So yeah, parts supply or cost won't be the issue at all.

I had one of those when I was six, tied it to the "bonnet" of my pedal-car. Brrrmmm Brrrmmm, whoosh - instant Biggles mode...

Someone intentionally imported this to the UK to sell it for 36 grand, during a time when people pinch every penny. Some people are just braindead.

I can't find it on my handy wall chart - oh, hang on, it's missing mortuus cerebrum

Do you know where that picture was taken?  I thought that red one was my incoming one for a second but wrong grille.  I have seen that lovely Apple green one on Facebook a few times. would be perfect for me as its now ULEZ compliant, and I think that one closest to camera is the guy who I gave my Favorit towbar to

It was at Škodafest 2017 at Stanford Hall, somewhere Northants/Leicestershire way. I haven't done a Škodafest for about 3 years now what with covid mainly. Hopefully all these cars are still tucked away somewhere as they were all the good ones.

is this on your list, @egg

thanks, yes it is, RHR has done the rounds a bit, a nice example apart from that attempted break-in (and as we know now, theft of Mk1's is a bit of an issue).
