This is the ultimate in hopeless Filby-era kitcar shite. I would LOVE IT!

 

By neat coincidence I found something about this kit in a Filby magazine at the weekend, when I was having a bit of a sort-out in the shed. I can’t remember which one it was however. Working out what titles he published over the years could be a specialist subject on Mastermind…..

This Camry was tempting me. It was up at £500 with no bids. It finished at £500 with no bids. Logically, the seller has now listed it at £995 BIN. It's also written in Twattish.

 

Making a similar reappearance is that nice 2.2 estate: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/131932838013

 

Apparently relisted due to timewasters.

Nice ones of these have gone way out my price range, which is a bit depressing. I could probably scrape together enough for this one though.

What does £2,300+ (reserve not met) buy you these days? A shit, rusty old nail with some 1970's Wormwood Scrubs mattresses, an attempt at joinery so abysmal it'd make Frank Spencer cry and some dog pissed stain flooring that looks like it held the world tap dancing championship on it for 17 years in a row.

There's a helpful list of things that he had to replace, but he's 'never had any running problems'

Fucking hell. The price of anything remotely VW related and van-shaped is getting completely ridiculous.

I'd love to see how ownership of that Chinese Matiz pans out after even the lightest of impacts

Modified for truths:

 

"Though the Chery QQ and the Daewoo Matiz are superficially similar cars, their safety ratings differ dramatically. A Euro NCAP front offset crash test showed that the driver's injuries in the QQ are worse than those sustained in the Matiz. Upon impact, the QQ driver will most likely suffer severe (possibly fatal) head trauma, and trauma to the neck and chest areas. The first generation Daewoo Matiz achieved a three/two star driver/passenger EuroNCAP rating"

 

Worse than a Matiz! Driving one of those must be like keeping your toaster on the edge of the bath and accessing your loft-hatch standing on a kitchen stool balanced on a bowling ball.
