I still haven't ever owned one of these.  I like them but I just never seem to get round to buying one.  Probably sensible.

Very cheap Mondeo estate with plenty of test but battery drain problem. I'd just fit an isolator switch myself - these don't seem to mind having their electricity disconnected. I mean yes you'll lose the stereo presets and have to reset the clock, but they don't completely shit themselves like PSA products seem to do.

That’s a shame. Looks quite tidy and well-specced. I think that may have also been a Ford managers/fleet/press vehicle in the past. A lot of them were on ET51 plates.

I know a chap that has purchased a few old London Underground stock for graffiti writers to paint.  Seems to have been a great business for him.  Not the most interesting comment ever but I thought id throw it out there.  I would to make a buy. of this.  My neighbours would love me forever.

 The 525 in comparison could actually be driven with some gusto, and get around corners.  Have to admit though., their drophead version used to twist n' shake around the scuttle.

Err, dropheap BMW 5 series? Did I miss something?

Here is a rusty Citroën CX Turbo in Lincolnshire.

That scuffling noise you just heard was Junkman hiding behind the sofa.

Narrowly missed out on this after a rash bid at the last second. Praise the Lord.

R8 416 Auto so Honda engine, unlikely to be HGF 

 

I'll stop you right there, HGF is actually very plausible. MOT history suggests it's not been used frequently of late and had a few months laid up at one point, and the D Series HG fails on the water channels if it's not used enough.

Ford Crown Victoria with only 18 hours to go on the auction. A modern, but I reckon one the majority of us here would have.

 

High mileage, but still commanding decent money.

I like Metro's.  They seem too expensive whenever I go looking for a car.  At the moment I am not looking and this seems reasonable.

I appreciate that.  I keep looking at these and hovering over the bid button.  In fairness I wish id seen it earlier.  If the seller gets "messed about" and it gets relisted I may take you up on that.  That said, I have just sent the seller a couple of questions and enquired about trailer rental from someone in this part of the world.
