eBay tat volume 3.

That's the problem with that kit. The bonnet is the original so still has the strange panel gaps where it use to dodge around the pop-ups. 

That picture only suggests how long the front overhang is. Compaired to the standard rear the whole car looks off balance. 

I like the wheels. They're familiar but I can't recall where from.

The owner replaced it with a Jag, I think, which is now rotting away in the same spot....

That's top shiting if correct - buying and selling chod from beyond the grave is one hell of an achievement!

I like that. It's probably just about as good as a AE92 GTi-16 from 15 years earlier. I don't know what the vvti engine puts out, I'd guess about 110, which is the same as the 1.6 16v from the GTi. 

It's probably slower 0-60 as I'd think it'd need another gear change, though I don't know for sure obvs.

I guess I'm trying to highlight the lack of progress Toyota seemed to make in the mid/late 90s.

Not just ANY 4 speed - this has got the 'nippy' 4 speed' box.

Sorry.  I know it's tedious and I'm totally a "man out of time" - but I struggle to see these as anything more than £500.  Exactly the same as Allegros.  Don't get me wrong, I like them - and my mathematics makes no sense as I plough thousands into a Sierra that also should have been £500.

I hope it finds a nice home with someone who loves it, but I'd be overwhelmed with buyer's remorse within an hour at £1500.  I'm not sure how easy it would be to move on either.

Enjoy/suffer the same rollercoaster of emotions I have this year by rescuing and restoring a car that's been laid up since forever.

 

 

Offers based on £500.  It's in Newmarket and I'd be honoured to film the "cold start" video for you in 1080p HD.

Cheapish way into classic ownership.

It's a shame that British rust is so damn ugly, compared with the sun bleached glory of the "fly over" states for example.  Still, not much actual NEED to improve - but plenty of scope if you so wish.

This is brilliant.  Exactly the sort of project AS should be embarking on over the winter months.

I love this photo.  Looks like some hairy urchin has taken it during a slightly illegal URBEX mission.

Final one from me here.

 

Sadly, whilst the owner is English and in Cambridge the car is neither.

Take all the shit off and you've probably got a nice Focus with some decent wheels.  Not for me - but it's £500.

I know this car, it's in Windlesham Surrey and has been on this driveway for over 20 years at least, I used to pass this every day for work, it's not on its own either,  I can't remember the model of the other cars but they have to be 1950's , anyway £450 buys it link below

Didn't someone on here suggest the Jensen was being sold as the owner wasn't actually alive?
