ZX estate for £100. Only one photo and hardly any info in the description.

Fancy exhaust though

Not far from me, and it's diesel.

 

However, the MOT expired in July. The MOT history itself isn't particularly worrying though. The ad says 70k miles but it's actually done closer to double that.

 

 

EDIT: Just sent the seller a message "Hi I'm texting about the Citroen ZX on gumtree. Do you have any more pictures? How much MOT does it have?" Let's see...

What a fantastic image.......My Grandad lived in one of those Airey houses and there was always a mouldering 50s/60s car belonging to one of my Dad's brothers in the front garden.  I hope who ever buys that Horsehair leaves it looking like that.

Everybody bangs on about Billy Ocean's hit 'Caribbean Queen' originally being titled 'European Queen' but how many people know Mr Ritchie's real surname and remember his first hit 'Oh what a feeling, when we're going diesel thieving'?

'Scammell 125 Ton Contractor...proved it's mechanical ability still at GDSF this year' 

 

 

We've got a 19 stone contractor at work, who proved his mechanical ability still this year by crashing the fork lift truck.

I owned that briefly 4 or 5 years ago.  Put the correct spec engine in (it came with an Austin/Morris spec rather than the uprated MG one), then sold it on to a chap a couple of villages away as it needed most of the sills replacing.  He brought it back to show me a couple of months later, pleased as punch with the job he'd done of repairing everything with Isopon's finest, including the sills, and respraying it with the white roof (it was originally all red).  Turns out he ran his own MOT testing garage,,,

 

Wonder if all the filler's still hiding under the shiny paint.

Yeah, can't open my car bonnet.

 

'That doesn't really sound like an emergency flower, what's your name I'm going to report you?'

 

It's Emma Bunton, I'm just in the middle of filming a sex scene with myself and Cameron Diaz in Darlo'

Things you're fucked if you can remember Ferrari making, part 662.7: A car that looks like one of those curly red fish things you used to find in Christmas crackers.

'Body isn't perfect'

 

Nothing wrong with your eyesight then M8

 

'Overall looks presentable'

 

Whoops, spoke too soon.

Have a fantastic felt pen drawing of a truck with pictures of Michael Jackson bringing some flowers round to his dear old mum's.

To me, who likes AEC's and has a motorhome, this is the ultimate solution.

 

Unfortunately, Mrs BMH didn't look impressed.

I flippin love these things, I've had three of em. They were so fucking lightyears ahead of contemporary XR3is, Golf GTI 8vs etc it was untrue, but it was a Corolla so no one bought them - 16v engine, 7800rpm red line, strut brace, disc brakes all round and weigh as much as fag packet

 

Oh and black ones were a limited edition, which meant black paint, different stickers and velouuuurrrrr on top of the highly generous standard equipment tally of....a sunroof and a radio

 

Not sure I could splaff 5 large on one like but there's probably only about 50 left

Seller says it's a 602cc and that it's an LNA.

 

I thought that LNAs had the 650cc Visa engine? Which might be important for a non runner, with it's all electronic Motorola ignition vs 602cc points.

Not that I'm interested at all. Where's Colchester?

Seller also has an Ami Super apparently.............
