Cor. Manta A has got to be in my top 10? 5? Maybe even top 3 best looking cars of EVAH.

All Fords of that era had the same auto box, Ford C3. My Granada 2.8 has one and I think it's a great box, lovely and smoothe even with nearly 200k miles on it.

I think there's a few minor differences early - late but still the same box. I'd have an auto any day over the manual, and even then I'd go for the old 4 speed manual over the 5 speed. But I'm a twat!

Same things just happened to mine due to the ham fisted apprentice. I've performed bodge surgery as they are pretty much all fucked like that or aren't far off going and is up to £70 to replace.

I've always liked the shape of the Aggro estate, but 3.5k?  NFW!

or a crusty and mot-less metro for a grand?

 

its in that wales though, and i cannot be doing with exploding sheep and terrorists to collect it....

Oi, that's only down the road from me, I'm not a terrorist and the last exploding sheep I saw was one that had been dead in a ditch for a while. I dare you to come to sunny* Wales to buy it, let me know when and I promise not to pelt you with stale Welshcakes.

Made 711 quid but has been relisted by the trader, why don't they just pay a bit more for the bloody reserve instead of pissing folk off?

 

 

The 10k miler with no mot but browner made slightly less.

 

I really think it's an itch I'll have to scratch once a couple of Panda's are sold.

I'm going to hazard a guess that those aren't the original seats.  Although I would love it if they were.

Front split bench - so three in the front, three in the rear and two rear facing seats in the back.

My ex brother in law had one, when they lived on an American forces base in Stuttgart. V6 with 12 bhp. I once had to travel in the boot - aged 22. It was not a trip I'd like to repeat. Also sat in the middle front seat whilst my sister drove us to the Black forest for a camping trip. The irritation of my sister travelling at 55 mph on a road with no speed limit in a car where the speedo stopped at 90 Mph, was immense. To take 6 hours doing a journey that should take 3 hours is almost as bad as the car itself.

Ledbury - so did it come in a box and was built up by a small garage?
