^^^^^^

A sublime way of pretending to be an early 1960's London minicab driver, surely with the right paint job a 'Welbeck motors' Dauphine would grace any 60's movie written and directed by 20 somethings who think shillings and pence were a pair of bent coppers.

That 'Warhawk' thing is fucking mind-bogglingly shit, its just raised the bar for wanky eBay trikes. Take a look at the 'dashboard' on this motherfucker:

HAVE TO SAY IT'S THE BEST OF THE THREE I'VE OWNED

 

I will pay CASH MONEY to see some pics of the other two

 

IS NOT (AS YOU OFTEN SEE ON HERE) EQUIPPED WITH A DODGY MOT OR NOT EVEN PROPERLY REGISTERED

 

THERE IS ENOUGH OF THE ORIGINAL VEHICLE FOR IT TO STILL BE CLASSED AS A "RELIANT RIALTO TRICYCLE". (THE ENGINE, GEARBOX, PROP, REAR AXLE,REAR SUSPENSION & ENTIRE CHASSIS).

 

Brilliant

Wolf in Sheeps clothing

 

$(KGrHqN,!oMFEKu5FT6lBRNc+eKknw~~60_12.JPG

 

1275, NEW COIL POINTS, CARB UPGRADE, RACING EXHAUST

I'm not sure that 0-60 in 13.5 seconds is really a wolf in sheep's clothing? More liks a slightly cross sheep, in sheep's clothing.

 

Ah yes - I love these "fast Mini" stories, then I can recall the story about my old bog standard 1983 Mitusbishi Mirage (1250cc) with a whopping 55PS that could blow a Mini 1275GT totally into the weeds. :mrgreen:

I don't think anyone actually buys these old funeral cars unless they're goths or on some bangers for bell ends rally. I've never seen one ever on the road re-purposed.

I bet this is a good thing to cruise about in if you can put up with the mpgz

Ford Ka van, which I imagine is ideal for a shoe shop as long as you transport one shoe at a time. £300 and why do I think it'll not look like the picture when you turn up to see it?

Exactly. Who in their right mind would buy that Rover funeral car unless your starting up a funeral £1 shop?

 

This Rover 600 diesel looks tidy. I had one when it was 4 years old and it was one of the worst cars I ever owned. Don't let that put you off though.

The other week I saw a W123 hearse that had been painted silver (badly) and used as a decorators van. Where the coffin should be were plenty of ladders and cans of half used paint. Naturally, I stopped them and got a quote for painting my house.

 

This is a bit tasty, whilst on the subject of hearses:

"interestfree4cars" - 3 days, no bids, no questions. Yep - seems pretty interest free.

As for buying old limos from funeral homes, local councils etc, I always figured those sort of second division stretch jobs could be ace as people carriers, in the same way that the old Austin black cabs are allegedly popular for hipsters as alternative people carriers

They were called Brush With Death, right?

:roll: Bit harsh, isn't it?

 

The advert seems to be reasonable & well written, doesn't make any claims about tax-free status (which it will apparently soon have, following the budget gubbins) or appreciating value... :?:

Where do I put my golf bats?

 

I'd want to use something a bit more substantial on this horrific piece of shit, maybe a 14lb sledgehammer
