I like this - it seems to have been on eBay forever - but I can see why it's not gone at £6K when the yellow one above is only three grand more:

Bit crazy price-wise but hey you could kit it out as a TV detector van and drive round peering through people's front windows to see if their Bush is turned on to Coronation Street.

i so, so wanted a Mini 30 when they were new, but in 1989 i was 15 so that wasn't really going to happen.

i think they did 1000 in black and 2000 in the cherry. which i prefer if i'm honest.

i wonder if its still got its Mini book and Corgi Mini pack with it? unlikely i suppose, but i have one upstairs in a cupboard.

All credit to @rantingYoof for finding this.

£1k for a reasonable condition Citroen XM though! Phwoooaaaar! 2.5 TD with 12 months MOT!

Would it have been this one you saw in that yard? I saw it in Bury, I think in the very late '90s:

Eventually I found out more about it, and it transpired that it was this very Type Approval car, I have a photo of it before it even got registered:

I’m going to say that it’s highly likely it’s the same car. It had been crashed into the field opposite the Gorse Ind. Est. by the scrapyard owner following a high speed run down the lane, I can’t remember it wearing any reg. plates when I saw it atop a stack but the colour and trim in your photos are the very same as the beaten example I saw.

 The car in the woods looks like it has some dents on the C pillar, maybe obtained in an arse-over-tit foray into the Barnham countryside..??? I’m just elated to know it may have evaded fragging so far.

That Bluebird really wants saving... I wonder how fucked it actually is? I'm guessing very. There are enough common-or-garden hatchbacks out there to provide all the bits, I'd have thought, though. Shame if it makes it this far in life and ends up as bean tins.

In the general scheme of things, it's probably unique in Britain. Are there any others in existence over here?

It's on Ebay too.  Its been for sale several times at wildly different prices. Seller says mucked about by buyers but odd pricing yo-yo and for sale in two places at once. It's at £1040 on Ebay.

From what I vaguely remember from discussions when @Spottedlaurel first posted his pictures online, I think this is the only 3dr that was actually sold here. I had no idea they even existed until I saw his pictures. I'd like to think somebody has the foresight to save something unique like this.

The Xsara’s sexy sister. Doesn’t get much more basic than this, perfect for hammering into a Hindustan Ambassador to pass lockdown boredom.

Incredible that design is more than 21yo. I've lost all track of car design dates but if you'd told me it was a 2015 I would not have disbelieved it.

Gorgeous.

Also conveniently located in the north east, so should you test drive, you can claim you’re simply checking your eyesight.

I'm loving that, and actually like the advert too, seems a straight up chap 'No faults showing on TC, but now it's got this one.' seems fairly honest?

Thankfully I don't have room for two 90s V6s in my life right now....

Agree with you in that. I have one neighbour with a blue 206 and one with a blue 207 and the 206 not only looks younger, I’d argue it’s the best looking car in our car park.

That P4 looks familiar, is it from this thread or did someone here ( @colc ?) own it ?  Some sort of medieval knee shredding weapon masquerading as power steering, 300 Tdi ?  I’m now thinking it’s all the dodgy modified P4s I’ve ever seen rolled into one.

It is...I did...............power steering was actually ok..........rest of it.....not so much.

Anybody fancy a bus with no engine? If that doesn't sell it to you, it's also an IVECO. 

Listed conspicuously as "Mr" in the ad title and has 0 bids so could be a bargain for someone looking for an ambitious project or a bus to convert into an airbnb. One of the more restrained seat coverings I've seen in a coach too.
