The Ford D Series.  A great old workhorse, let down only by its slight propensity to suffer from rust in the cab.

^^^ I remember sitting in one at the SECC motorshow in 1991/2.

That very nice Audi 200 Estate is on my doorstep (well it would be if my doorstep was about 20 miles long), I can't work out whether it is actually for sale, or just an avert that it is up for auction at Brightwells later this month.

I didn't know they did an Avant version of the 200, looks pretty ace.  Quattro, too but not cheap.

When I worked in the Filling Station Kenny Dalgleish came in driving a brand new one of these.  I wouldn't have known who he was but my mate was there.  I served Alan Bates when he filled up his nearly new SD1, too.

Not eBay, but a couple of things which I think are half-decent that I've seen at local garages:

1995 Rover 214 SEi by Spottedlaurel, on Flickr

 

This one has only 25k on the clock. Nice interior, cheap tax - I bet it'd make a great daily.

1989 BMW 520i auto by Spottedlaurel, on Flickr

 

Don't know what they want for this, but it's only done 64k and apparently has full main dealer service history. I don't really 'do' BMWs, but I find this appealing (even if it wouldn't be desperately quick).

 

Given enough cash and storage space I'd be stashing both of these away. But I have neither - let me know if details are required.....

That reminds me, am I the only one when told to collect a sample mid-stream who ends up with piss everywhere?

 

Not to mention the wet trousers from the stream.

Remember this old favourite?

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1982-Y-Lancia-Beta-Trevi-2-0-4-Door-77k-Blue-Classic-PRIVATE-SALE-07929-524122-/272263817376

 

It's now got an MOT (with no corrosion advisories, just a bit of an exhaust blow and some lack of use in the brakes) and has come down to £1699, plus there's now a bunch of spares thrown in.  Still the same photos from when Thomas A'Beckett was doing his O-levels, mind, so it may or may not be this shiny.

 

This is now roughly in the territory where someone on here should buy it.  I would, just for that dashboard, but sensible head says no more cars plus if I was buying anything it would be that Gamma Coop from a few pages back.

If I wasn't in the middle of major house renovations (and therefore skint) I'd probably go for that Trevi ... as long as it still resembles the 5yr old pictures.

 

Can someone buy it please and look after it until I've got some money (current forecast mid 2017).

I'm half tempted to buy that Viva just so we can have that picture in the calendar.

 

Well, maybe slightly less than half.
