somewhatfoolish Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 Shite-o-rama; Proton Persona, 150 BINs, Kidwelly Who wouldn't want a Magma engine? Velorous Quote 1999 Proton Persona · Sedan · Driven 60,846 kilometres Anyone interested in this old banger? Selling on behalf of my grandfather inlaw who no longer needs a spare car. 1999 Proton persona 1.3 starts and drives.2 or 3 old owners from new only done 60k miles bodywork is pretty tidy for a 22 year old car. 5 good tyres x4 alloys plus full size spare steel wheel. Clutch and gearbox are good. Nice basic car with a huge boot. Keep fit windows all round. Mot ran out last year should go through another fairly easy. From what I can see it will need a new front plate and some more red tape on the rear lights. Started and drove this morning after being parked up 7 or 8 months. No modifications at all even has original working radio cassette player. Needs a clean inside from being sat. Comes with new timing belt and water pump. There was a leak from the pump but I never got round to fitting the new parts for him. Nice cheap banger to put on the road or Ideal banger racer or rip the engine and box out for an autograss car or project.

R1152 Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 9 hours ago, willswitchengage said: For anybody who doesn't know how ridiculous American cars were in the 1970s: that has a 7.7 litre engine making less than 200 hp, and that wasn't even the biggest displacement that Cadillac made. Imperial mpg is around 10. Much of which is/was down to how much they were strangled by emission controls at that period in time - but fuel that was practically free didn't encourage their industry to improve efficiency and even now, it seems energy is so cheap in the US that anecdotally, they still appear to overheat their houses and not know how to turn appliances off. Energy conservation would appear to be for Communists, or something. Maybe an American Shiter can elucidate? When Walter White rolls up to the clubhouse in his 'gunship' in the finale of "Breaking Bad", he's asked if it's a 500 or a 425... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a Vandy Double Six in the same colour scheme as the one an uncle of mine owned, which is interesting; but I think I have enough grief in my life.

He chased me down the Welsh roads en route to Shitefest - I had the infamous ex-Bollox 220SLi. I came across a T junction slightly unexpectedly just before arriving and the P6 appeared in my rear view mirror quite abruptly, the 220 it turns out had better brakes! I was completely lost and without satnav, so when I spotted you in your Rover I gave chase. And yes, I have a very vivid memory of that T junction that surprised us both, as I very nearly merged both cars into one Rover 2220000SLi. It was a bit of a dog. The sills were quite soft (see photo), the drivers seat bounced because, well, look at the photo, and the floor pans could be 'popped' like the lid of a baby food jar. The engine was tired and leaked so much I used the side of an old washing machine as an enormous drip tray. Incidentally, I forgot about the 'drip tray' and left it on the floor at the NEC. When the MOT ran out I sold it for spares, and so was quite surprised to hear the new owner had fixed it up. Fair play to him, I'm really glad the car lives on.

Conrad D. Conelrad Posted March 21, 2021 Share Posted March 21, 2021 Oh, and it had an MOT when I bought it like that. So perhaps that explains my apathy toward that particular institution in the 40yr exemption debate.
