I really miss my Visa. If I ever have any money ever again it's something I'd like to revisit. I reckon it was one of the nicest all-round cars I've owned - great fun to drive, highly usable, fast enough for everyday use with all the mod cons of a modern car but pleasingly odd to look at and just distinctive enough not to be totally anonymous, without being an obvious attention-grabber. The trouble is, there aren't really any others and the few that exist are all in enthusiast hands and 'valued' as such, when really it's just a slightly odd second-hand car.

Still, plenty in France. This one-owner car looks a bit sad, but is just crying out to be saved. €450. Not sure what engine it has, though.

this one is definitely correctly-engined, and is only 250 Euronuggets. Could make a nice one from the two I reckon

This one has silly water-cooling, and is all the money, but looks fantastic. I must say I'm envious of the luxury you get in a 'Super' - carpets, ffs! How decadent.

These facelift cars are n't half as appealing, but the colour of this one is lovely

Needs a bit of welding but nothing major, and it's only 600 Bitcoins. Not sure what engine, though

This one is about as far away as you can get, but hopefully that means it's not rotten, and for 900 monkey nuts it looks like valu. "it's a Club" too, which is a private joke only one other person in the world will get

Facelift or not it looks to me like citroen designed it from the rear and moved forward, then ran out of ideas when it came to finishing the front. Either one looks really awkward. Weird as IMO the GSA and CX look great. 

I think  a GSA is the only classic French car I'd ever consider. And I'd buy it just to look at it.

Can anyone save this? 1981 Vauxhall Cavalier GL, the seller says it might go to the scrapman if there aren't any other offers:

I'd make an offer, but I'm on the fucking opposite side of the world at the moment.

The steering wheel is an abomination .

Apparently putting an ls in an omega isn’t easy as gm euro did their own thing and didn’t reuse any of us or Australian stuff in the omega even though they may look similar .

Speaking of fast GM products, this beautiful Senator B with the right engine and a manual transmission just popped up on Ebay. Getting a Senator of this spec in such amazing condition, and then with a manual too, is a very rare occasion.

Somebody has turned the rear bumper upside down, removed the Pauxhall badges between the lights and fitted the the reg plate where that goes (like the Opel Kadet had). 

Just ask which daft ___t did that to his dad's blue one (it's not this one though - NWG335R)

Remember reading there's only one of these on the road in the UK. Good luck finding spares

Check out the asymmetrical steering wheel and the Power Ranger's leg of a gear lever

There's a scruffy one of these driving around Aldershot.  It passed me the other week.  So that's two.
