Probably told this story before but I bought an even more basic one of those back in 1994 on an "A" plate, 45 model, no headrests, one wing mirror job. 

Bought it lightly damaged,my first ever bumpy. Needed a door repair and  a wing which was overall pretty easy, rear strut as well as it leaked oil. 

All jobs done at my parents house and I decided it was a bit foosty inside so I put it in the garage with the door open to air on a gorgeous summer day. 

Came home many hours later to my old man moaning that I'd damaged the garage door and he'd spent the last 2 hours slamming it shut....... Fucking idiot had closed it onto the open Uno bootlid and then spent the newsy 2 hrs slamming it until the bootlid was practically folded in half rather than simply opening the fucking door too see what was jamming it!!! 

Yet another trip to the scrappy and after a decent wallet raping a tailgate was bought....... but I did at least manage to steal a shocker and hide it in my toolbox.

It's the 4.5 so has that engine knock many seem to suffer from, but the vendor suggests just turning the stereo up and ignoring it.

Treat your roffle disappointment with this JDM ornament.

Oh.  It gets worse.

All that and boing-band drive - no bids yet, surprise surprise. I may try him with £69.73.

Very probably the best looking small trails type bike of that era. Or any.

One of the pictures when enlarged makes it look a bit shitty at the bottom edge of the tank, and it's very strong money, but what a fantastic thing. He mentions a deal with another bike, CBA travelling to try and see if there's a deal to be with my X7.

Why is it that all the cars I regret not buying get flipped straight away? That appeared numerous times on this thread over summer, on a previous but badly written ad at £250. In fairness though this latest owner has put a lot of effort into restoring it with those wheeltrims.

Recoloured the seatbelt thingamagigs red; that's dedication. It's a bit pimptastic.

Colt 1100; £2200

How ace is this? The designer obviously couldn't decide which influence to follow so just included all of them; I can see Dodge Charger, Triumph Herald and Ford Cortina and that's just at a glance. Trims need skipping though.

I think there's also a bit of Fiat and Datsun in there as well.

Oh FFS...

I'm on an LS400 page on the FaceBook for LS400's, and it's 90% US owners asking stuff such as whats the best way to 'stance' it or whats the best wheres the best place to store a handgun. 

But I'm 95% sure this'll be the 'Baz' that always appears every so often that has a new one that's for sale, appears a bit of a cowboy, etc and makes the US lot make a bit of a joke of the UK lot. But to be honest, the rest of the UK lot fill in the stereotype by asking the best way to 'stance' an LS400 on the cheap... ?

Fucking LS400 Owners, they ruin LS400 owners....

These are ace! They're really quite nippy and a great steer.

I went to look at one today; don't let the pictures deceive you..it was significantly crusty.

I am tempted as it is relatively cheap, but it is unusual for a car to rust in New Zealand so I have a little umming and ahhing to do.
