The more I look at it, the more it looks like a £2k van not a £10k van.

Pretty sure I know that van pm me if you want to know more. 

6-8k will buy a driving running lwb with a good chance of getting an MOT and not too pretty to use as an everyday vehicle

Only if you have a time machine, the exporters routinely offer much more than th at for virtual scrap.

They weren't that clean 30 years ago, let alone now. Structurally, it looks amazing.

£2500 seems reasonable for an Activa

[garethj]

Do you look at cars with 1 NCAP star and think they look too safe?

Have you pretty much settled on aircraft engines being viable in road cars?

If Scrapheap Challenge was made in 1928, would you be on it?

If the answer is yes then don’t wait another minute - pick up the phone and get professional help immediately.  Or buy this 12 litre supercharged V12.

It's strumming my guitar for sure - I've stuck a cheeky low bid on there.
I'm not sure how well it will sell to the general public who may envision mechanical (LHM) madness though.
Talking about reserve prices - this was on reserve at £2750 @ Leominster last week (they'll tell you the reserve if you ring up in advance). Didn't sell. My wife says if the reserve drops to £2K I'm allowed to go bid so long as I get the welder prepped:

They don't rust, in my experience. Not sure I would pay 2k for a diesel one tho, and a base model DT at that.

750i. I would say low cost big liability but it's 17 years old now so Shirley a shiter. Anyway it's a moot point because seller wants £4000 for it in the Land of Trustworthy (Erdington). 

What a grotesque steering wheel. 

[grogee]

Handsome little thing, £1000 Castle Brom. Probably bumpy and noisy as well. May well be oxidised, too.

Laughable pram. £1150 Milton Hell.

Scenesters will be raping this shortly. Just* £1500 and a train ticket to Erdington ensures rescue from the slam N camber brigade.

Absolutely love that colour on a Legacy! Pretty sure the seller is part of the owner's club too, so this will likely have been well cared for.

Very unlikely to need welding, I'd say. They're remarkably rust-resistant. 

 

Highly underrated cars. A lot of people will tell you how they're badly made, but they're really not. They had some design flaws which are sorted now. Very robust cars really 

 

I think one day the P38 will be known as a good car, but unfortunately not yet

I've a hankering after a late P38 to tick off my bucket list and I don't really want another V8 so the 6 pot diesel is a viable alternative to me.
This one has a bit of chassis that maybe needs plating or at least some TLC  (according to my spy who was there) and it also has the feel of maybe being a probate sale to me. So I don't think the reserve is going to drop and it will just keep cycling through the sales week in, week out.

Similar to this Volvo which is now on at least it's sixth run through - first time I saw it reserve was not met at around £1750, ten days ago it only reached £1350 and is now more or less being driven on the F/O/S rim as it needs some air - kind of tragic. You can pick one up for less than £2K elsewhere with the added attraction of being able to give it a test drive.
