Opel Ascona - 1.6 S  - Base model?  1985
Location Netherlands Price only 500€. There is some rust, naturally, and some damage to the paint on the boot. Wonder how did that happen? Overall not so bad. The Dutch MOT (APK) run out in June 2021

Not quite, yes it is a basic LS but it a. is an almighty powerful 1.6 instead of the 1.3 and b. it has a couple of options, such as a right side mirror.

Fair price, if it isn't too crusty underneath...

Apologies if we've had this, but phwooar what a car - late Ital with the improved* front suspension. Much lust from my side of Warwickshire.

hope not, can't be many original cars left

Not a terrible way to end up for a homologation road car..... as a race car.

A local shop owner had one of these in the late eighties / early nineties. My dad owned the only other Lancer I'd seen of this shape.

Cool? No - dad had a 1400 GLX ..... but  it was great. Did a 360 on a frosty February evening not long after I'd passed my test in 1989 follecting my parents and my uncle/aunt from an evening meal. It was a single track road in Carmarthenshire with a ditch/hedge on both sides. No damage - didn't touch the sides.

Silence broken by uncle Mike's words "well I shit a brick"

Happy mammaries😁

Rotten flat front 900 Turbo listed in the parts category. £310 at the moment, worth a pretty penny in parts if one can be arsed to break it. Those "airflow"  vent covers are £100+ on their own.

Always pondered how easy it would be to transplant the running gear from one of these into a 3 Door 99. Dream ULEZ beater right there.

That 900 has been in my watch list all week - managed to resist the temptation so far though.

I once had a 99 with a T16S engine from a 9000 Turbo fitted, so it is perfectly feasible, if a little torque steery.

That poor little Vanden Plas 1500 that sold in Brightwells last week is on ebay.

Saw it on Brightwells but t'missus said 'non' - I think the same seller is listing a Range Rover that went through Brightwells in the same auction?

....for twice the Brightwells price?

I just double checked - neither the RR or VP sold at Brightwells on 28th - Reserve not reached I guess

https://www.brightwells.com/classic-motoring/past-results/classic-vintage-past-results/past-results-28th-october/

Ooh yeah also this sold for £33K (so not autoshite - certainly not tat)

Me too, hopefully it rockets in price at the last minute so I can justify not bidding 😁 

I have seen a couple of 16v conversions in 99s, but they aren’t a common sight. I bet your old 99 was fun!  The one listed is a 1985 car, so could be either 8v or 16v.

Classic Impreza values are a one-way street. £5k for a Sport is deluded though. Shave at least £2.5k off the price and maybe. 

I was seriously tempted, insurance is only about 1k for an 18 yr old (which is damn good) 

It is a long way away, I have committed in my mind to an Audi 80/90 quattro, but also aware that I need a car I can rely on...
