I think I was at that meet. At the end of the Demolition Derby it was just Sonic and Mario that were left running. Every time they hit each other the track was showered with gold rings and stars.

1999 Swaffham Earthshaker, IIRC. I was there, too.

I think I saw you hovering over the crowd...

I've been looking at Honda Insights for a fair while now. I'd love one, and now I have the 75 as a sensible* stay at home family car, I could ditch the company vehicle and run one to and from work. There are a couple of companies that import these suckers and it appears eBay have a new kid on the block...

Ok, you've got my attention. Call me old fashioned however, but I do like a bit of professionalism, Mr... ?

I'm trying to think of some reasons why I shouldn't bid on this. There's plenty of logical reasons why; no MOT, sat for a few years, minimal MPG, but LOOK AT IT.

don't blame me;)

 

I won't. It'd be much worse. If I win it, and it's a shit heap, I'll forge your signature on the V5 and dump it on your drive with the keys and a bill of sale in it.

Yeah, snap it up! This cannot be allowed to die yet - it looks too good. If it were a dizzler, I'd be on my way with notes in my sweaty hands already.

 

If it's a shit heap, keep quiet, fix the hose and roffle it....

^^ I'm pretty sure that XM belongs to my brother and laws house mate. I saw it lurking outside when I picked him up one day I think it's been sitting a while.

 

 

100 quid streetwise

Wrong fuel, right price. Absolute bargain this (assuming it checks out ok) for £200 with a full test.

GB sticker means it's had a hard life though and was probably owned by someone who took it abroad so it must be fucked.

I guess reverse gear will be, as the GB sticker should be on the back.

They are coming from a secret BMC bunker deep in the Arctic - part of Dr Evil's plans to topple nations by destabilising their car industries with cheap new cars. All are beige to match his suits - the HL's come with a white fluffy cat mascot.

Today's subject: Silver saloon tat within 10 miles.

 

Silver almost suits this: smart. Note bonus arty Nissan / LDV background.

Silver makes this blobby shape invisibly dull. At least it has a complete roof. Not exactly an exciting showcase for Honda Hybridness.

Not as boxy as the Nissan, but still a good shape. Prefer the vertical rear window of the 760 though. These are best in red. With no potato peeler thing on the bootlid. The correct number of cylinders.

These were originally for the us market and Japanese - where they prefer saloons. So the styling is more for US tastes. Only imported here in lowish numbers to have a token hybrid model in their line up. I guess engineering that engine into the EU civics would have been too much work for low volume of sales.

anyone know anything about xc90's I've got a minor lob on for this? I hear the t6 consumes petrol like a sinkhole under a fuel depot

 

 

I heard it consumes auto gearboxes at a similar rate, which is what put me off one. Fuel you can budget for, it being off the road and costing billions for a new box, less so. Volvo forums were full of tales of woe last I looked and they still aren't that cheap.

Yes the fuel thing is crazy, and for no appreciable benefit. They're slow and seem to lack torque, I drove one 800 miles across France and no matter how careful I was, the fucking thing would not stay in top gear, using cruise was impossible as it would kick down 2 gears if the wind changed let alone a slight gradient.

Oh, and apparently you only find out the 4x4 doesn't work anymore when you actually need it.

 

Non of this stops me looking at the V8 ones and wondering when they'll get cheap.
