'Modern day classic'

 

It's about as 'classic'  as a sheep farting Beethoven's 5th symphony via a road traffic cone shoved up it's arse.

About as collectible as an STD.

That's the funniest thing I've heard since Dominic Cummings needed to drive 60 miles around Durham to "check his eyesight", and yes I did Google Beethoven's 5th.

This doesn't look bad.

Ah...

Bit confusing this, the listing is for three cars, and it's not clear which one this charming engine bay belongs to. Still, £1000 for three Wartburgs... that'll keep you out of the pub for a while!

These are owned by an old workmate of mine, he bought a giffers house about 3 years ago and the chap left the cars there. Two are totally beyond repair. The third is actually quite nice, he asked me to come and see if I could get it running. After a bit of fettling got it running ok off an external tank, my god it was smoky to start off with! Just needed a new fuel pump from what I remember.

 

There was a tasty Wartburg camper type thing too (can be seen in the background) - that just needed a fuel pump too, was the same type of engine as the others. Must be a weak point on these.

Sounds like a decent project for the asking if you've got room!

Agreed, I think most people will look at the advert and be very confused as to what exactly is being offered. Think they were originally up for £1800, the guy knows nothing about cars and just wants them gone so I suspect an offer of even less than £1k would take them. Thankfully I have no room at the inn for them or I might be tempted!

I saw the van in the background and wondered about that... do you know if it's being sold separately?

Some proper tat in that back garden.

Yeah, it is a bit confusing. I think that is an earlier version of the ad I posted. It does seem that you get the two rotters with the estate, and that tidy looking G-reg saloon is available separately - again, doesn't look bad value at a grand.
