The VXs and Ventoras were handsome bastards. One of my earliest car memories is reaching up to the chrome door handle on my dad's bosses VX estate and hopping in. He had borrowed the car for 24 hours - it felt like a limo with decent grunt to 4 year old me, especially in contrast to his usual daily driver Chrysler Horizon. They're still lovely looking motors, and much like most GM motors of the era, undervalued compared to the Ford alternatives.

I like that, im a bit of a maestro fan, but is a 1.3L with scabby bits really a 2250 car these days? My wifes diesel one was 700 quid 2 years ago. Perspective and all that

No!  I'd say about half that; a friend sold a very comparable car (F reg 1.3L with full MOT but some rusty bits) for around £1100 last autumn, and he's not one to ever let anything go for a penny less than he can possibly get.

Yeah, totally original, apart from the wrong seats (from a much earlier 2CV) Also seems to have hydraulic dampers (not 'Batteurs and friction dampers)

And i know at least one of the previous UK owners. Other than that 5k is about right and i like it a lot

Now I like an auto, but if you're trying to convince people that what you have is a hot hatch rather than an OAP chariot...

I thought it had more power than the normal 1.5, but not sure it does, either.

Looking to purchase similar car as replacement
The nonchalant flip up windows offer the driver the opportunity to outw#nker any BMW driver when it comes to the casual "elbow out the window" look.

Buyers beware: the 2 Chevaux's reputation for being economical, fun to drive, cheap to ensure, charismatic and a guaranteed pu$$y magnet are all entirely unfounded. 
They are awesome, generally owned by hooligans and road ragers
The idea that they were designed for French farmers to carry eggs across ploughed fields is a complete urban myth spread by jealous Range Rover drivers and supporters of Nigel Forage. 

As for the rollback roof: forget it. You'll never use it. Who on earth wants to be driving a pocket rocket whilst feeling the sun on their face ,  having their carefully gelled hairstyle ruined? No one in their right minds. 
We can't recommend buying  this car unless  you're looking for something fun, charismatic and an appreciating asset . 
It has a completely original interior that has never been pimped (showing a complete lack of imagination on behalf of all of it's previous owners). 
It has only covered 44,415 miles from new, which is an indication that not one of the previous owners could cope with the electrifying experience of driving it.
It's been fitted with a galvanised chassis, so its next owner won't even have the pleasure of having to replace it.
The hood doesn't leak, so where's the fun in that, you can't even get your feet wet when it rains.
In addition to the selection of spares that are offered with the car, it comes with a comprehensive stack of well organised invoices dating back to 1995 plus MOT certificates authenticating the mileage as being genuine. 
The vehicle is fully equipped with virtue signalling from every angle.
All of this sounds risk free and not much of a challenge. 
Furthermore it's about 18 months away from being MOT and Tax exempt and ULEZ exempt, so in no time at all the new owner won't even have the pleasure of contributing to the coffers of the Treasury, who would spend the money on building a high speed private train link from Downing Street to a tax haven somewhere in the Bahamas, where they can spend their time holding work parties, organising the next pandemic, and groping whatever comes to hand.

Only 2 vegan horses where harmed in the making of this advert, the magic mushrooms were gluten free and bionic, and the vehicle identifies as  polyandrohermaphroharrypottery or a wheelbarrow with the pronoun "moi". 
The reference to its original Burgundy and red  colour Is made without any intention of cultural appropriation to the region of Burgundy or any reference to Native Americans.  
We apologise to the entire French nation, anybody sensitive to the colour red and anybody called Karen, in fact we apologise to everybody, irrespective of whether they have a body or not.

I must admit, I was hoping that the add would have for sale links to the Alfa and the Jag hiding in the background which are more my jam....

I’ll keep my eye out for it on FM, my spidey senses tell me it’ll be up soon
