eBay tat volume 3.

Recommended Posts

Can I post cars from Car and Classic in this thread?  What about if they aren't cheap enough to be shite?  Sorry I'm new ...

Well on the basis it is better to ask for forgiveness than permission ... and it is pretty shite in that it's a brown Datsun ... and is still within the realms of ordinary person affordability ... I want this so badly.  So much glorious BROWN.

Shirley that's MOT exempt now anyway. Even  so,  it's gonna take balls of steel to take that on.

It will be once it's reclassified as "historic" but with something of that size and complexity it's probably better to keep doing the MoT. There's a silver one of these in Chipperfield but I've never seen it run; its owner is a Merc-licker

The 2cv FB collective think this is a scam. I’ve messaged him for more interior,  engine and chassis pics.

2CVers = nutters, Facebook = breeding ground for nutters. I'm failing to see anything scam-like about the listing. It's just an old Dyane van for auction which the bloke says is worth about £6k, which is probably about right these days. Scammers don't tend to advertise real vehicles with multiple pictures, for a start...

And that fail was 8 years ago - it's unlikely to have improved since then.
