This looks fantastically useful for HIABing, er, stuff you could just pick up with your hands.

99p start.  I can see this going on Billy's watch list.

That reminds me of the story about a VOSA (or whatever they were at the time) doing spot checks on commercials and finding a small truck with an attached crane where the weight of the crane was more than the allowed carrying capacity.

How is it a fake Capri? Just wondering.

 

Just too good to be true. Email him to find out what the scam is.

The claimed full restoration appears somewhat at odds with the single MoT on the database.  The car required some welding last September.  It might be that the seller is just new to the biz, but the price seems low, if the car is as good as claimed.

 

 

 

  • Reason(s) for failure
    offside front Body or chassis has excessive corrosion, seriously affecting its strength within 30cm of the body mountings inner wheel arch (6.1.B.2)

    nearside rear Body or chassis has an inadequate repair, seriously affecting its strength within 30cm of the body mountings (6.1.B.2)
    front Windscreen washer provides insufficient washer liquid (8.2.3)
    offside rear Direction indicator not working (1.4.A.2c)

I add that the claimed mileage is bullshit.  102,500 is the likely figure, but the seller is claiming 2,500.

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?

Can't see the Impala getting any cheaper and you can't drive a house :)

That Range Rover is so goppingly hideous that I'm strangely drawn to it. The mk2 Astra Cavalier (?) mirrors are a work of twisted genius.

It is more like what does Mrs Thestag have against me enjoying life

She might be a lot more approachable if you'd explain the fact, that owning a P6 guarantees you'll be never far from home.

LAND ROVER SERIES 1971 2A iia DIESEL GALVANISED CHASSIS TAX EXEMPT

 

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/LAND-ROVER-SERIES-1971-2A-iia-DIESEL-GALVANISED-CHASSIS-TAX-EXEMPT-/282326900507?hash=item41bbfe9f1b:g:4qIAAOSw44BYNJVA

 

Weird one this. So at just shy of 5 bags an S3 in this shape would be the strong side of just about right.

 

An SII would be a bargainz that would need snappin up right about now

 

However this S3 with a Vin stolen from an SII for free RFL etc shenanigans is a fucking nightmare..

Verdict unless you have a V5 for an S3 run and dont look back

His car is 69 which is right for lights in da wings. however on resto he went mad and bought an s2 front panel for the look.

 

I dont approve but it does light up the world at night.*
