On a sliding scale of 1 (strange) to 100 (fucking bizarre) it's probably slightly* odd to hate car grilles. But this is when Fiestas started going to shit.

One of these with the CVT was the most modern car I ever owned.

It's clinically depressing shitness was a major contributor to form my opinion that the motorcar as such had died on its 100th birthday.

Insufficient frenchness; 534th in the series "I never thought I'd type that out".

 

Particularly taken out of context it's one of the strangest statements ever made.

Wuvvum said he likes Ivecos once, so maybe not quite.

^ Is that the one which was owned by someone one here?

Edit, the red Cav SRi.

Would look better on standard wheels.

I assume you are talking about Jon's silver blue hatchback in New Zealand?

Edit: And it turns out he has referenced the one for sale in his thread:

I think you're right.

 

How rare is a Cav SRi in Australia or NZ?

Am assuming they must have been private imports rather than dealer-supplied.

Jon says that his is the only one in NZ and the one for sale is the only one in Australia.

 

The Mk2 Cav was built and sold in Aus/NZ as the Holden Camira

Question: If I was to buy this, how long will it take it to ruin my life?

Better to have loved and lost, than never loved at all.

You could pop an ageless plate on that and tell folk it's brand new, runs on potato peelings and can whip a Tesla into the ground and they'd believe you, it looks like a spaceship.

Until it pisses fluid out all over the drive, like an excited puppy, then you get to start one of those endless threads about fixing it!

GIB.

Don't know if this has been noticed or mentioned yet but this scammer has over 2000 valuable cars pinched from other peoples' listings, all advertised at £4,800 with instructions to email his 'brother'.

 

How do ebay allow these wankers to get away with this shit?
