I must say I'm very tempted to take a punt on this:

Bit annoying that they couldn't have sold it with a couple of days MOT left. Still pretty tempting to try and drive it 50 miles to a pre-booked one though. I'm thinking a fluffy idle is probably just the coil pack or a sensor or two, but then I read that these early Jag 3.0s were prone to spinning big end shells. It looks pretty clean though, you'd think I could make my money back stripping a few bits off it, and if the engine isn't fucked but the rest of the car is, I could store in the shed for 10 years while I work up to putting it in my MX5.

Imps weren't £50 even 30 years ago

We used to have a pretty much non stop stream of imps for £20/£50, a mate had a huge milled block to DIY skim the heads before reassembling.

I think that Chopper is called a Chopper "Sprint" It's a pukka model and pretty rare.

Jesus, I used to drive one of these 25 years ago! As you can see it has a front bumper made of thick steel plate and probably filled with concrete to help level it out when the spec lift was in use. There was a single jockey wheel with an aircraft wheel and tyre on it that went in the centre of the specs for heavier vehicles. Towing a smiley face Transit 'd' owned by a farrier with a forge and anvil in the back was a truly unforgettable experience!

I think the Chopper Sprint just had low rise bars on it, but the GT had those racer bars.

Although I'm going to Google it now and prove myself wrong I guess...

 

Edit: I'm wrong.

Want to spend 8k on a car that most folks will think is an old LADA?
