Tamworthbay Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 I tried to rescue stuff from the local Rover dealer when they were skipping it but was told by the guy doing it he would be sacked if any stuff went from it. Stupid in every possible sense. stephen01 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alexg Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 FFS, this is the worst effort I've seen in a long time http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Ford-Fiesta-automatic-1992-/112129020739Apologies - I don't have all the details to hand, so some things may not be accurate. This is a good little car that still runs very nicely. There is no power steering, so it's fairly hard work to drive, but it's reliable and neat. It is very like the car in the picture, which I couldn't resist putting up, just because it's funny (and quite like my car). Year: 1992 So nothing like the car in the picture then. drum, BorniteIdentity, Lacquer Peel and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garethj Posted September 11, 2016 Share Posted September 11, 2016 Look, classic car prices have gone absolutely mental over the last 18 months. I've heard stories about it being due to investments on the floor, pensions are worth nothing and interest rates continuing to fall but even so it's difficult to imagine a hedge fund manager advising his client to take a punt on a Hillman Minx or to have a Vauxhall Cresta in his portfolio. Perhaps it's because of a few star performers, stuff like E Type Jags, Porsche 911s and Mk1 Escorts are now outperforming the Financial Times' best predictions and maybe they're dragging the values of other stuff with it. Whatever the truth, old cars are now out of reach unless you spend serious coin so what else is available for reasonable money? The owner of this XJS is looking for £3300 despite being only a six cylinder. The paintwork looks a bit rough and let's be perfectly honest, this is from an era when Jaguar's reputation was not at their best.http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/jaguar-xjs-/232077948697?hash=item3608ec7719:g:GUYAAOSwZVlXuXIN Let's not worry about E Types, they're at least 10 times the price for something that will devour £30k in restoration costs. But for the same money as that XJS you could have this XK8 with its lovely V8 and much nicer styling. Which is more likely to get you laid?http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Jaguar-XK8-4-0-HPI-CLEAR-Full-Service-History-Cream-Leather-11-Months-MOT-/201663753455?hash=item2ef418acef:g:DjUAAOSwxg5XwxKL This is the car most likely to be parked outside the local autospares shop in the '80s. Driven by wide boys and wanted by teenage lads everywhere. This one's up for TWELVE GRAND and it's far from the only one at that kind of price.http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1985-Ford-Capri-2-8-Injection-Special-Fastback-3dr-/141968022351?hash=item210df41b4f:g:11AAAOSwYudXGjeg Newer wide boys with a penchant for oversteer choose these E36 Beemers. This shape is a pretty car in 2 door form, has all the tail out action you could wish for and at 2 grand seems like an absolute bargain. Plus you won't have to be welding up the strut tops next year. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/E36-1996-BMW-328I-M-SPORT-AUTO-BLUE-COUPE-2-DOOR-PETROL-BBS-FULL-BLACK-LEATHER-/182250647591?hash=item2a6efc3027:g:mX0AAOSwM4xXbrNO What does a grand buy you in terms of classic VW Beetle these days?http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/vw-jeans-beetle-/232077728707?hash=item3608e91bc3:g:acgAAOSwGtRX09-y How much do you fancy driving that through the winter?
