On our local faceache buy/sell for £400 with a dented door and blowing exhaust,  it says to pm but as you can't, contact him here https://plus.google.com/117140620562261248819/about?gl=uk&hl=en

 

As an added win,  logging in to the group to pinch the photo I found one of Ms C's mates advertising a load of Scalextric for £20 so now she's off to pick that up later in the week :)

A manual FTO would satisfy my idiotic need for a small Japanese V6 coupe.

car has been standing long time in dry storage

 With a constant supply of moisture, look at the front valance!

 

 

 

I love these 80s Mini's, bog standard and completely original, no flared arches, bucket seats or fancy wheels  http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Austin-Mini-City-auto-/231556714293?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item35e9db0f35

What's wrong with these FTOs? I've seen them going for very little money

Used to have one of those (same colour) - lovely car with top drawer handling!

Cheap for one of these it seems, but with weepy head gasket...

Saw one similar to this in Liverpool recently, giffer driven light blue one on a Y suffix plate, Megashite!  http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1990-VOLKSWAGEN-POLO-C-BLUE-/171780440652?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item27fee9824c

More late 80's Family hatchback brilliance...  http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1988-NISSAN-MICRA-LS-WHITE-ONLY-56000-miles-/201345379807?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item2ee11eaddf

The faded RSPB sticker just adds to the WIN

 

 

Title typo is easily forgiven...   http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Citroen-ZX-1991-MOT-1360cc-Starts-stops-runs-well-Nice-condition-comfy-/371323778603?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item56749f362b

Speaking of older Polo's...  http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Mk-1-VOLKSWAGEN-POLO-3-Door-Hatch-/201345472043?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item2ee120162b

This vehicle has been dry stored for the past 28 years & is in a very salvageable remarkable condition.

 

 

It's fucked then...

 

 

I've always thought the seats, especially the rears, look really uncomfortable in these...  http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1990-Ford-Fiesta-1-4-Ghia-CVT-Automatic-Low-Miles-53K-BARN-FIND-Retro-Classic-/221766249931?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item33a24c6dcb

Aren't these fairly bulletproof? 

 

 

 

Mine wasn't (1.6GLXi) - more shit went wrong with it than I care to remember... thermostat jammed, 2 x ABS sensors failed, bonnet catch broke (this was a nightmare to sort), ignition lock fell to bits, trim fell to bits etc etc. All this on a six year old, one owner 45000 mile car. I only had it a year, when the clutch went I weighed the bastard in. Luckily it had been written off by a stupid woman putting a crease all the way up one side of it by this time - I'd been paid out & bought it back off the insurance as it still had some MOT - so I was only too happy to send it to the 'bridge.

 

Perversely, the supposedly crap 'proper' Skoda I had before, a Favorit, was brilliant!

No room, poor steering, rev-crazy engine a bad match for the auto-box that most have.

Grey import stigma.

Lots of alternatives for anyone in the same market sector: Alfa GTV, Hot Civic, Impreza, Hyundai poopScoupe.

None of those alternatives have any room in them, either - and an Impreza's not a coupe.

You're right about the autobox and grey import stigma, though.

 

Makes me laugh when people see a £500 GPX and say, 'Nar, they're shit and well slow'. Aye, cos 170bhp £500 cars grow on trees....
