How cool is this?

 

Under the bonnet there no longer lurks the wheezy old 1.6 litre engine that it left the Ford factory with, instead you'll find a 2.0 litre Fuel injected engine from a Granada, this is coupled to a 5 speed manual transmission, with a new clutch fitted

Do you have old Allegros or Marinas cluttering up the road/drive?

Do you want to upset your neighbours further?

Do you want a possible council investigation to see if you are running a business?

Spare £20?

It's a terrible indicator of my addiction*, but I REALLY want an early 2-door Range Rover, despite having a 4-door :(

Definitely. Especially in avocado green.

My arse was it, it was previously on your Ford Probe with a wanky lamborghini panel kit on it featuring 3/4" panel gaps and loads of visible mastic when you open the doors

 

I'm not the only one who just sees 'DIMBO' am I?

They almost did a good job on this one except for botching the BL logo by squishing it.

That is beautiful. It's such a shame they gave the UK models that weird kit car instrument panel instead of the groovy drum speedo etc.

 

Agree, but all in the Slough tradition. Except they're Jaeger clocks.

 

Original is rather weird and charming.

This is rusty but unmolested, which is an increasingly rare occurrence with these 70s Holdens. Three on the tree manual, so bristling with up to date technology of the time. Check out that pert rear!

It's roadworthy but the holes obviously put people off, as it was on at £3000 starting bid and didn't sell - probably about as low as I though a usable one of these would get. Except now the starting price is £2500. Tempting........

Here's where the sensible money would go, though. A smidge less than £1400 gets you a 25000 mile MG with placca trims like the one which appeared down my street last week.

Still has the thief-deterring Phillips Coded stereo sticker in the windscreen. The auto box marks this example as the pinnacle of MG's illustrious sporting pedigree

How about an antithesis to most Mini enthusiasts, in the form of a standard version of the car they all bloody love so much?

£2250 for the above one, which I reckon is pretty fair, considering scene tax. Or try and keep an eye on this one, which is currently at no bids opener of £150:

This brown beauty could be a nice catch if the reserve stays low and you're willing to overlook the obscenely wank aftermarket speakers hacked in to the front door bins.

Love how no effort was made to disguise the tacked on wing extenders after they moved on from the pretty hockey stick rear lamps.

Many people think that Aussies are a laid back bunch of jokers but spot how many add-ons which had to be made to an Aussie market MKIV Cortina (NZ was offered standard and Aus spec at the same time) to make it comply to their regulations of the time?

I mean, they even had to meddle with the name!

So it's in Elgin (that's between Inverness & Aberdeen if you didn't know) with no UK paperwork, 250k on the clock and a knackered turbo. WCPGW.

I want to see this in a collection thread :D
