fancy yourself as Dean Winchester? maybe you would rather be Sam instead?

 

in that case, you will need some wheels.

 

£25k, but if i had the cash, i certainly would.

33 years ago, my then 17 year old girlfriend was given £300 to buy a car to learn to drive in, by her Grandma.

Obviously with my expert influence she bought a black 1967 Impala Hardtop with a 283 bellowing like a big block through Cherry Bombs. We both worked in Central London and the summer of '85 was ( in my rose tinted memory) non-stop cruising around in the sunshine - all the windows down and 4 across both benches, partying ,drinking, sh...., well you get the picture. There's a badly deteriorating Polaroid of the Impala with L plates on somewhere , if I can bear to expose my mullet and cap t-shirt, I'll dig it out.

Anyway, it's her 50th next month. Do you think a £25k re-mortgage is sensible in the current economic climate?

any scratches or dents were repaired at the time of its mot

 

So why have you then decided to park it in a bush?

It's a 1.4 petrol

 

 

The MOT is due for renewal on 28/01/2017 and it is being sold having failed for 2 reasons as follows:
1) The rear subframe needs welding and bushes need replacing.
2) The exhaust emissions are excessive.

 

I bloody hate these things, they could scrap every last one afaIc.

Could be alright?

 

 

It has been a reliable vehicle over the years and reason for sale is due to a failed MOT on the following:

 
  • Fuel pump leak
  • Minor welding

  • Reason(s) for failure
    Fuel system component leaking Pump (7.2.3)
    nearside front Suspension spring mounting prescribed area is excessively corroded Wheel arch (2.4.A.3)

    nearside front Seat belt anchorage prescribed area is excessively corroded Sill (5.2.6)

It used to mildly irritate me when people put those 'traditional' Rover grilles on series 1 800s, but this just looks utter shit.....which is a pity as it otherwise it seems pretty smart (which it should be for the price!)

...or there's this. The seller believes it may be a one off, so it would be a real shame if this didn't go to a loving home, obviously.

Dieselnutjob's old car if I'm not mistaken. I've been round the NEC's access roads in that. 

 

Why it's been matt blacked I've no idea. Black and silver plates are technically legal under the rolling VED exemption but look cack.

Yes, the dolt who made the regulations had no idea about historicity.  Soon cars from the late 70s will be able legally to have black plates, and this will look daft.   Even when black plates were still around in the early 70s, a lot of cars when new would have had the white and yellow plates, as they would have been seen at the time as more happening YO if you had a hyper modern 1972 motah.
