It's £9k but I would consider this quite a safe investment. There's lots of love for the turbo 4x4 era and this looks like a nice example. Don't think I've ever seen one, so I guess it's rare too.

They weren't hugely popular back in the day but that's more likely down to the abundance of cheaper turbocharged cars around back then like the cossie and cavvy turbos despite these being hugely competitive.

My mate had one as he was a mastertech for Mazda. His was a full rally spec job, looked the part and went well too.

Another one! Morris Oxford V series Traveller that's 3 in the UK that I know of.

Be like me but with a tan interior and column change.

 Recent New Zealand import

Oh I see. You should have imported an Austin Freeway with the C-series straight 6 engine.

Look at the fucking 2 and 8 of this!

Made from a Reliant Robin but with 33% of the wheels thrown away.  Amazingly it’s not road registered, perhaps because the DVLA don’t have a classification called Wank.

“Built at a cost of over £12,000” 🤣 Seriously? 

You can’t add the cost of the crack smoked during the build process to the price of the parts.

Not a chance that £200 worth of secondhand Reliant Regal bits and a few bits of ally sheet even came close to the current asking price. 
 

I don’t know who’s more certifiable, the daft fucker that built it, or the bloke who’s trying to sell the deathtrap with what appears to be a straight face.

So when are you starting the Collection Thread ! 🤣

 

(Seems a waste of materials to me but it looks like someone kept themselves busy with it).
