Seller's description

A rare Standard 10 Standrive classic car, one of only a handful of semi automatic cars still around. Selling due to husbands bereavement I can only describe as I see or remember him saying) it was previously shown at lots of shows and had been cherished. The paintwork will require some work, the interior is not in bad condition with no rips and all original, the headrests are there. The engine runs ( video provided) but from what I remember the fuel pipe needs reattaching? The brakes don’t work. It is a 1958 and until parked up was a good runner. The number plate alone was valued at £1500 once there is a current MOT on the car. Viewings welcome , there is a V5 . Won’t take a lot of work to restore to its former loveliness, ideal for anyone wanting a cheap classic car. Lots of past info, details etc. 5 mins from jct 35 M6

Came to post this. Bargain I reckon. If I hadn’t just bought ANOTHER car I’d be fetching it. 

A high-vis on the parcel shelf and a clipboard on the dash and I reckon you could park this pretty much anywhere you wanted.

That looks incredibly primitive for 1908.  The Silver Ghost was a couple of years into production by then.

Yeah, but...

Land Rover made the series 3 into the 1980s. That was also really bloody primitive compared to its contemporaries!

Oof, that is a bargain if the tank isn't rusty. Decent cam position sensor is 100 quid and replaced in 10mins, easily accessible in the front. Someone get this bought, wheels are worth half the asking price and it's a nice spec!

It's a bargain even if it is - good E38s are getting very hard to find now and that one looks lovely. If I had the space I'd be getting a trailer organised and a trip to Glasgow sorted.

@SiC Next time you update the board software can you add a vomit reaction please?

I can already imagine how certain people will utterly misuse that in a passive aggressive way!

might be worth dropping the seller a line, see if he will post to you being such a big Yugo fan.  If not I'd be happy to have it sent to me then forwarded to you but guess it would be cheaper to see if he will send directly 

 

Small update on this - Turns out the Sana guys know the seller. 😄 One of them bought one of the boards, and sent a photo. Upon complaining I got ignored, they said a nice word or two about being a mate, and two boards and Yugo UK hat are on their way to Serbia. 😄

They're not wrong,  they just need to brush up on not putting spaces in a single word.

Not more so than any other pre-selector gearbox.

Truly crudtastic.

It should be preserved, if only to highlight how good the BW35 actually is.
