Christ, He must burn out his battery every time he turns his lights on!

 

I'm going to break my 'don't re-post pictures' rule here. That Hunter is absolutely MEGA, please buy it Mike.

[trigger]

I wish i could but one 70's crod is enough for me!

[Volksy]

Oh my. That Volvo is fantastic. Why is payday 10 days away!!!!

[pandamonium]

Probably a good thing. I can imagine a 2.8l volvo meaning you'd be doing a lot of 'waiting for payday'

[TagoraSX]

That Hunter looks the business, but all those lights are GR9 for overheating problems.

[Skizzer]

 

Poor old five-pot Passat, presented in Diamond Silver over maple-effect Formica that's well beneath its dignity.

 

ALL PHOTO'.S WERE TAKEN ON WEDNESDAY'S

[Mash]

That Hunter is brilliant, very period.

 

I like the Volvo 760 too, haven't seen one that early in years - I always remember the different fancy script they had for the badges.

Another one to squirrel away methinks.

Most were done by a London Fiat specialist who imported them before Fiat UK brought the official LHD cars in. I think they had a three letter name but I can't remember what they were called.

 

RHD.

DTR wasn't it?

[Skizzer]

 

 

2-owner Maxi with 30k on the clock and a year's MOT. Not super cheap - £1230 and counting - but a bit of alright.

 

I'm getting all fidgety about the green Princess, which ends in an hour. Will my auction sniper do the trick...?

[Cavcraft]

RAC?

 

Hotter than Daisy Duke's knickers

[Cavcraft]

Bargain I would think...

11 months test, 4 months tax and vegetarian interior for £450 or submit best offer.

[RedSparrow]

Seems a bit pricey for a Maxi, but on the other hand I'm kind of glad they are starting to make half decent money. Means people have started to appreciate them a bit more.

 

Recon the Marina must be the ex-Practical Classics one. Can't be more than one done up like that, can there?!

[trigger]

Frig me, that Marina is da bomb! Just like the General from the old issues of Practial classics (IIRC).

Yep I remember that, photoshopped to look like they were jumping a hump back bridge and getting 10ft of air!

Masochistic tendancies?

I bet driving that over a rough field would be like toboganning down the Horshoe Pass on a sieve with your arse hanging out.

Of course it was!

 

The launch in May 1995 of the new Fiat Spider the Barchetta made for a seamless transition as a company, from classic to modern. We imported the first of them, stripped down to the bare essentials and converted to right hand drive (just to see if it could be done) it could, but was not really financially viable, as over 100 hours went into each conversion. We converted 6 models, including one for TVs Top Gear and two for export, but no more!

It's got a VX engine whatever that means.

 

It means it's got a supercharger, so will drive almost as fast as it rusts

 

Seriously though. If I wasn't already knitting replacement bodywork for an aged Italian sports car out of mig wire I'd be all over that Beta like a rash.

Unemployment forces sale. Unemployment of brain I'd imagine.

The paintwork is a real one off. One side is a picture of Kevin Rowland with an elastic band under his nose...

 

...and on the other is Charlie Read, one half of 'The Proclaimers'

 

'It's rumoured they were going to start a new super group called 'Dexy's Midlothian Runners' and this was to be their tourbus. To prove this I found a handwritten songsheet in the glovebox containing the following lyrics, hastily titled 'Spitroast Eileen:

 

 

When I wake up yeah I know I'm gonna be

I'm gonna be the man who Comes on Eileen

When I go out yeah I know I'm gonna be

I'm gonna be the man who Comes on Eileen's face with you

If I get drunk yes I know I'm gonna be

I'm gonna be the man who gets sprays this van badly

And if I start coming yeah I know I'm gonna be

I'm gonna be the man who's Coming on Eileen's face with you'

[Cavcraft]

How the mighty have fallen (in price), went past this today and wondered if the price was actually correct.

The same garage have a tasty looking HC Viva for sale too I think.

[cort16]

The 3.2 is pretty guttless. I drove one a few years ago and was pretty grim. The 4.5's lively but they're all still hideous to look at.

Fuck me, that IS the Practical Classics "Generally" from the Dukes of Wisbech feature. The Marina Ecosse club were involved in the original build. I want that so much my toes are hurting.

 

Here's a video of it getting a refurb.

iron cross AND union jack? wtf?

 

oh and the nasty portraits on the side IMO look like keith moon and ian paisley

[sporty-shite]

Brick-Top.

 

I thought that was Morissey! Qualz work. 0.1/10.

[willswitchengage]

 

2.3 diseasel. I bet it's really, really fast.

now it's slammed on cut springs and fitted with rare original 70's cosmic alloys

 

I've bought a 64 beetle

 

You surprise me.

[idiotboy]

What is it with these VW pratts who have to remove all the suspension and handling from any car they own? Volvo did kinda know what they were doing when they designed the 144.

 

Sigh, I to navigate through a column of lowered VW tat yesterday on the southbound M1, all the drivers looked the same as well; fighting to keep their charges in a straight line, crashing over slight imperfections in the road. Guess it must be so tough being so truly "original" lol.

[cort16]

hubba hubba. This is just about my perfect Capri.
