eBay tat volume 3.

RHD with KMH speedo - antipodean? did they even get these?

 

Perhaps it has been replaced? Looks like an original UK judging by those Serck plates

ABSOLUTE PEACH OF A MOTOR

 

 

[phil_lihp]

It's probably the V6 and velour talking, but I can't help liking that.  

 

Problem is, you'd keep losing it as it's hard to remember what it looks like when you're not looking directly at it.  'It Exists'.

Useful load lugger, £200.

Being cheap and local it's tempting, but makes me zzz just looking at it.

What exactly is the point of a 2l v6?

[RobT]

Pop-up headlight action for £250.

You can experience the noise and cost of a 3.0 without succumbing to that pesky asphyxiation business.

Because you can, just like the 1600 straight six you could get in a Vitesse

The 'breaking' 105 mile Maestro made £3260 at Barons Sandown Park September 2014

 

https://classiccarprice.com/article/91/low-mileage-austin-maestro-makes-3260-at-auction

 

 

 

Then it went up for sale again at Â£7,750 in December 2015

 

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/cars/news/102-mile-austin-maestro-for-sale-again/

 

 

 

Then it appeared in CarAndClassic for Â£9750 in January this year.  And it has sat there ever since, being readvertised over and over as "part of a private collection now being sold"

 

http://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C814846

 

 

 

Then it appeared on eBay as an auction listing starting at £6995, two weeks ago.  It went unsold with no bids.

This interesting fella has traded out of Bristol as eBay account chipshop7 since November 2002.  

Also concurrently as ivesonice since May 2004.

 

On the 'other' account, he offers a 1953 Daimler, if you fancy that instead.

 

The excitement is nail-biting

Grim. Comes with 'complete mechanical overhaul kit' in a lettuce box included in the purchase price. You'd need a wiper blade for the MOT though, as such I'm out. Also, you'd definitely get tetanus from the interior.

 

Hyabusa re-engine FTW

I seem to have a dim recollection of something about ideal individual cylinder sizes - BMW used to carp on about it to justify their 2 litre straight sixes I think.

 They weren't sold here officially as far as I know (but I am waiting to be told otherwise).  Being old enough to remember and always far too interested in car trivia, I feel I would have known, but maybe not.

This needs saved.......

 

 

 

 

Serious question:  What does "this needs saved" mean?

I believe it is a popular expression in Scottish.

It's Jockistani for "This needs to be saved"

Oh dear.  I really wish I hadn't seen that Innocenti.  I'm trying so hard to be good at the moment.

Everyone knows that the ideal individual cylinder size is one litre and 25 cubic centimetres.

And you need eight of those.

Oh, and a stupid looking numberplate.

[rantingYoof]

I literally cannot think of a country linked together with less suitable roads for a car that straddles hemispheres.

 

Fantastic.

Hyundai Lantra, 1992 clean mot. Looks a bargain.

RE the low mile maestro, lets call the twats bluff and buy it in parts. I'll get the engine and box, someone else the shell, someone else the interior etc... then wang it all back together at a mutually convenient event!

Everyone that buys a bit, get him to send it to Bulgaria, we can then build it over there. Bet nobody has ever thought of that

That's our weekend's activities sorted for Shitefest '17 then.

 

We all buy some bits, get them delivered to our home addresses, then take them to Shitefest with us!

I'll print out a picture of Russ Swift on my dot matrix printer and send him pieces of it in the post. Then I'll send him the 6000 pieces of my 14400 baud Hyundai modem I smashed up in an internet rage and the cycle begins all over again.

 

Note attached reads: 'Is this your sanderling?'
