Always interesting to see one of your own former cars for sale.

In my ownership:

Poor thing does not look to have fared very well. Although the current asking price is a fraction of what its respray alone cost a few years back!

At about £1700 in real money, this must be a good buy, assuming it runs and drives.

I’m sorely tempted by this, especially as it’s got 11 months MOT that the seller doesn’t mention, if it wasn’t for that pesky lockdown...

I'm sure buying a car counts as a reason to go out - dealerships are still doing click and collect, after all. :D GIFB, you know it makes sense.

This looks great, nice colour and just the right condition, looks like it would in the mid seventies. Currently cheap.

I just spotted what is across the road also, a great picture.

I find this very, very tempting.  Base spec, big miles, cheap price, looks like a dodgy dealer.

Are you sure, have you driven one of the horrid things? More Cortina than Mondeo, and not in a good way.

I have driven several Mondeo’s, mk1’s, 2’s, 3’s and 4, I have driven mostly mk5 and 4 Cortina’s and whilst Mondeo’s are ok I would much prefer a Cortina. I have not driven a 1 series BMW but on the fact they are RWD I would expect them to drive better than the average modern car.

That's the find of the month, no danger.

I can't speak from experience, but looking at the amount of absolutely fucked (through inherent faults and champagne dreams/lemonade money owners) I honestly think there must be more knackered ones than good ones left.

Eddie shoestring on a case!

Nor I, but all things considered it doesn't seem too crazy for a 30 year old hot Jap these days, does it?

Nope, compared to the equivalent Toyota it's reasonable, a little rarer and cooler for it too, if you like that kind of thing, which I do.

Those wheels are smashing!

With more leaks than a greengrocer, this non MOT'd, cosmetically improved* Manual baby V6 in the best colour, with full service history M8 could be a shitters back door into prestige motoring at nearly 700 nicka. (That's quite a lot for this questionably immobile failure actually). They've managed to kill it in the 7 months they've had it but, it may well have had expensive rear suspension work already done. No frontal pics though.

She is lady.

"parts come to £870 but hands to £2700 plus vat, so great to repair..."

Hells bells.

Good base for the 116 Trophy. It's absolutely mega. I'd recommend it to anyone who is into class-free racing with control base cars at a reasonable budget. The sort of person who would like Locost but wants to be in something enclosed. The guys at 750MC are just great too

That is a belter. To the right buyer I think it's a fair price (I think there's far more of a market in Ireland than Great Britain for this kind of thing)

That'll sell easy.  Retro Japanese stuff is loved in Ireland. 

Speaking of the Irish market, not seen an AE86 or a Galanza over in the UK in aaaaages. Semi frequent sighting in Ireland especially during rally season. 

My eldest cousin had an early boxy turbo Legacy, pre Impreza, late 80s. The thing went like stink, easily 200bhp+. Sold it for a B Spec Legacy which also went like stink. I was only 18 at the time and (probably thankfully) could only insure a Starlet at the time.
