I spotted that one a while ago and also quite like it. It looks bloody awful, but for £1k it's complete...ish, bloody huge and is silly cheap. I even tentatively showed my OH, but she scowled and muttered something about tarmac and dogs. I responded that gentlemen of that persuasion wouldn't be seen dead in such a heap, but that we could have it for bargain* camping. She really wasn't impressed. I wonder how it's actually supposed to look, and how they've achieved the 'extension'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most stuff is leased these days; however in a former life working for a local authority I was involved in demolition of surplus buildings so that the sites could be sold. One site was a former depot which I was checking out, mainly to get costs for testing and disposal of all the unmarked drums of oil/chemicals left behind. The site wasn't particularly secure (that was something else I was sorting). I was therefore surprised when I went in one of the garages to find a Mercedes stretch limousine covered in dust. I knew the car as it was the old mayoral car. My boss got it retrieved pretty sharpish. It had been advertised for sale by tender when it had been replaced by a new one, nobody had bid so it had been shoved in the garage and forgotten about. It did then get sold, no idea what they got for it and I didn't bid as I had nowhere to put it. Shite Ron 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really? I love old Renaults but not ever going to have a big audience. Hardly any on the road in France or at shows. One of those cars that went without many noticing. "Virtually on 100,000 mile now (low for year)" Heard of mansplaining? That's ebaysplaining. Joking aside nice little car tho Apparently a close up of any part can be sent - I think that refers to the car only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteersWithThrottle Posted July 9, 2020 Share Posted July 9, 2020 Hmm well the council I work for all the vehicles are bought outright, and some of the new fully gadgetted bin wagons are very expensive. They dispose of them in bulk at auction, saves on paperwork I suppose. The Lord Mayor here has a 7-series. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cardiff City Council still has its Phantom V tucked away in the basement garage at County Hall, it's only been out for its MOT for the last few years, in recent times there have been calls to sell it, or at least put it on display. I think it still carries its KG1 numberplate. Shite Ron 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
