But it does have a sea of beige.

In a money-no-object dreamworld (which I suspect many of us are visiting more frequently at the moment), I'd love to rescue this, ditch the atrocious alloys, repaint in a period correct colour (maybe Wild Moss) and get rid of the electric power steering.

Perfect for that essential* journey.

Something heroic about the shite-ness of photographing this Gothic horror by the bins downstairs, and then trying to flog it during the plague-days.

Want.

Quite a lot.

*Driven once in the last 3 weeks, to buy lawnmower petrol from a pay at the pump. Mask, goggles, gloves, late at night. Frightening. This bourgeois-barge would have suited my mood perfectly.

What that needs is slotmags. 14” on the front, 15” on the back.

And about £16k shaved off the price.

Just needs the "right" engine. About 2000cc 300 bhp, some sort of forced charging. 

Doesn't need 4x4 

I'd like one. 

I’m sure there used to be an MR layout kit car version that used a YB. I remember something about it from Ford mag adverts in the 90s. £17K as a kit and £24K, built Iirc.

It possibly was the KAT or whatever they are called ones, with the weird side skirts.

Really miss mine, think it's time to get another one soon.

This has me worryingly tempted and has terrible investment written all over it. 

On a semi serious note does anyone here know anything about replacing the batteries? 

chris fix on youtube did a mk2 battery change and apart from the interlink unbolt taikin ages - it didnt seem too bad
