And what odds this will finish early? I would think the bottom is going to drop out of the saturated hipster market for these. There is always loads for sale a daft prices.

The odds are high. It's already pushing a grand with 8 days to go

These Aussie mix-and-match bitsas are fascinating. BMC struggled to get the right car in the marketplace. A Farina with its bouncy suspension and a heavy 6 up front on rough roads must have been interesting. Presumably they didn't sell many?

Nice though. Deposit taken apparently.

Some of a Mk1 Triumph 2000. Cheap, but would cost a metric fuckload to get back up together.

Daewoo MOT History.... no way has it done 63 miles!!!

Date tested
5 February 2013 FAIL

Mileage28 miles
MOT test number4386 1663 3097

Test locationunavailable until further notice

Reason(s) for failure
Nearside Front Steering rack gaiter split (2.2.D.2d)
Nearside Headlamp aim too low (1.
Offside Headlamp aim too low (1.
Nearside Front Tyre has a cut in excess of the requirements deep enough to reach the ply or cords (4.1.D.1a)
Offside Front Tyre has a cut in excess of the requirements deep enough to reach the ply or cords (4.1.D.1a)
Nearside Rear Tyre has a cut in excess of the requirements deep enough to reach the ply or cords (4.1.D.1a)
Offside Rear Tyre has a cut in excess of the requirements deep enough to reach the ply or cords (4.1.D.1a)

I don't know, the majority of the failures are on rubber components which could have simply rotted away as it sat, and there's nothing about misaligned headlights that's mileage related.

Also, if you were going to lie about the mileage why go for such a low number, It's not like the car's wildly valuable whatever the mileage.

It's been sitting on flat tyres all round. For years. Hence the uniform side wall cuts. Probably.

Very interesting yea. Thats what finished BMC in the end. Ok cars but they just either didnt sell enough or make enough profit on each. Still a lovely old car.

My OCD. Ford Cortina 4-door 1500 in 1965 £690 - Austin 1800 £873 - Ford Zephyr 4 £817. Comparing apples with oranges I know but Cortina was significantly cheaper and even a Zephyr 6 was only £17 more than the 1800.
