That looks oddly familiar - Im sure someone was asking £9000 for it on Facebook a week or three back ( much to the hilarity of all the commentators who came to the opinion the seller was smoking crack).

Regarding that E34 518, I did actually like the one I had, despite it's numerous issues, including what I suspect was prop wobble. Not great on the motorway but fun around town as you could rag it everywhere and still be doing the speed limit, and look cool*.

 

Having a 6 cylinder BMW now though reminds me that 4 pot ones are great until you get in another 6 pot. (In my opinion)

I'm considering registering with Copart to have a bid on this. It's only down the road as well.

What does it cost to register? It does look like a pretty straightforward fix.

This is as good as it looks bodywise. Engine is sweet and has full history. The interior is mint although the glovebox is held up with a giffer repair. The exhaust is loud and boomy. It's also blowing from the front. I suspect it wants a full system. I need to do some maths. He's offered a monkey for the saab as well.

Glovebox is a TADTS. Locks fail,either get stuck open or closed. Same happens to 740s and 940s.

This is silly cheap for me to insure, and the Jag is about to go into hibernation. I actually have a pragmatic use for it too. I want to buy it as I have the money. 
Any London sorts that could help me get a ticket on it? I *think* it's in the borough of Lewisham, but that's based onluy on me looking at the background of the images.

For grimness, this has it beaten. 

Bottom of the range, keep fit windows, black bumpers, saloon, automatic, it it the gift that keeps on giving.

I've always thought white Megane saloons look like a stormtrooper's helmet from the back - more so on a car  with body colour bumpers admittedly.

Apart from the ridiculous top speed, how could a 1.6 make only 65bhp in the mid ninetys?

Manufacturing tolerances which were wide open. 

Ie the opposite of blue printing. 

We (my dad) had a 1.6 dangly mirror base model Y reg Sierra estate from new and it must have had that statistically impossible tolerance stack up, which made it rev well.  Once i passed my test, i ragged it around like it was a mk2 escort rally car, But at the same time I had a job where I used the pool car which was a B reg 1.6 ghia hatch, and it was flat. Some of it might have been the extra weight, but i reckon the engine must have been at the other end of the statistically impossible tolerance stack up.

Because it’s a ridiculous website statistic like the top speed one 

Mid-90s Zetecs gave 90bhp and 100 lb.ft
