2.5k with body damage but proper V8 so who cares!

Fuck a duck that is tempting!  I've always had a soft spot for these for some reason - maybe because the utter pointlessness of them makes them prime futureshite material.

'been in the steel industry around rotheram all of its life'

'low millage' 

 

'1st owner - british steel
2nd owner -  corus steel
3rd owner - tata steel
4th owner  - me'
 
So just three mills from new?
 
 

Not one I ever got to drive, but I'm sure* it was driven with the utmost care like we always did on the steelworks.

That seems a lot of money for a mega mile write off that looks as if it probably smells like a Cavcraft Zafira.

ive always fancied one, just not that one unless it was half the price.

I remember TG magazine describing those as 'the car to take six executives off roading'. But what actually was it? MPV? Crossover? I guess it was just quickly OBE by the SUV craze.

BONDWATCH. In its natural habitat

However, it's a new one for my REGISTER, which is always good to see despite the condition. I give this a 600 to one chance of going back on the road, sadly.

It's got 'the bits' though, at least

This is the same seller who had that old Rover 216 recently

'collection kelsall Wirral.'

 

To be pedantic, they've probably missed out the word 'not' between Kelsall and Wirral. There's a BFO hill on Kelsall bypass that might have been ideal for racing a Porsche 924 in a Cortina 2.3 many years ago.

Why can't we have cars listed like buildings? This would look magic just bought back to life enough to be used, rather than some spacky Lotus replica.

Actually, looking at R Classes on eBay, there seems to be a few of them going for around £3K - although most of them are diesels.

When I worked at the dealer, the R was one of the few models I really liked. I hated the ML and GL it shared oily bits with, but the R drove far better than either of them. R350d in LWB spec was like a roadgoing Intercity 125.

Looks ace, but £5,450 for a bleeding Freeloader?

Has there ever been a ‘collectors edition’ model of a car that’s actually worth significantly more than the normal version?

The only thing I can think of is an Escort Harrier, possibly?

Clio II v6 + Clio II Trophy

Ford Racing Puma

Etc

Clio trophy’s a good one! I’d argue that the v6 and the racing puma are different enough from a cooking spec models to count as different cars though. I was thinking more along the lines of different wheels and fancy stickers

It's nice, that's for sure... but 1500 squids for an 80s Volvo with no MOT? I'm pretty out of touch with the prices on these, mind you, so maybe it's reasonable.
