So... exactly how does shoving what appears to be a light-up butt plug into your lighter socket save fuel? Might have to message the seller and ask. 😁 Remspoor and wesacosa 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
georgeinabz Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 These didn’t come in to the country with vinyl roofs , I’m wondering if it had accident damage as it was a trade trick to hide a multiple of sins on botched body repairs , I got rid of mine in 1984, parts weren’t the easiest to get quickly back then , be interesting now. It’s currently at £3200 …. A lot to re-live my youth. Nice bit of overspray, I don’t mind but if your wanting top dollar then put the effort in.Sent from my iPad using TapatalkDidn’t make reserve …only £6800, the £31k guide a bit optimistic considering the Colt car company’s older colts only made 11k and 15k back in March . Plenty of these rust free in Thailand /Far east / Australia going cheap , just have to ship them over.Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Remspoor 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colino Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 As the Yugo started life as a poor copy of the Fiat and this one has some rust underneath and could also do with a mop on top, there will be very little actual mild steel left once you've tidied it up.

I mean at least with those pellets you put in your tank they do try to explain how they work even if it's all bollocks. But this, there's no explanation at all. But why would there be, what could they possibly say to explain how plugging a light in to your cigarette lighter can cut your fuel consumption by 20%! But they've sold 54 and lots of other people are selling them so I'm sure* it's legit* Remspoor 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
georgeinabz Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 A mere four day raid. Kind of highlights the benefits of a UK - Norway ferry crossing.I feel your pain , we had planned for my pals 50th in 2009 to go to the artic circle on the bikes, however ferry stopped from Newcastle in 2008.It was getting ridiculous looking at other options as would spend half our holiday just getting to and from Norway.Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has been up for half a year now and I reckon it might be worth taking a punt. Trouble is, I reckon it's a sub 5k car until I see the history and wondering if it is too big of an ask. They are a dealer and probably bored with it sitting around, so might dare with a low ball. If of course it isn't a total nightmare Any opinions on these cars? I know the gearboxes are quite weak, but engines are bulletproof Remspoor 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a fairly good go at trying to buy a beige 1.3 from Der Nederlands a few years ago - but couldn’t get the seller to take me seriously. I do struggle with the 3dr looks in low spec flavour; it looks out of proportion. There’s absolutely no doubt that this will get pimped, the eventual sale price will necessitate improvement to get an RoI which is what all the Ford Scene is about.

Crackers Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 This is saying a lot to me.
