I've just bought a 'survivor', if I hadn't I'd be trying hard to buy this. Inexplicably, (although possibly not on this forum), the mileage is just an added bonus to me. I could buy it safe* in the knowledge I'm owning and driving a vehicle of historic* significance*...

And yes, it's a GT.

I have to stop now, otherwise I may do something foolish.

They've been asking "what it's worth mister" on all the 205 groups on facebook for a week or so

I'm 140 miles away but if I can help anybody on here in the process of buying it then I will. It deserves to be saved.

I have no idea on value though!

Hmm. not silly money. Message sent, will go and view - it doesn't help that I'm off to Germany for a week on Tuesday, hopefully I can get a viewing in before then. If not, would some kind shiter mind going and taking a look?

In a worst case, eg, if nobody else puts their hand up, I'll go, it's a bit of a trek but probably worth it.

Diesel Sherpa dropside, how wonderful is this?

Curiously on Irish plates but in the UK

That is just fantastic.

You’d have to be brave to take this one on...

But if you did you’d have a brown Ro80 and therefore be one of life’s winners!

Currently sitting at £410....which is about the right price.

Oh, aren't modern scrap yards boring. No standing on the bonnet of one car whilst trying to remove bits from the one in front and above. Bloody health & safety.

As for the motorhome. Just love to buy that and stick "Vote Green Party" on the side. 7 1/2 litre US petrol should doooo wonders for global warming.

Rust on the rear inner arches, going through onto where it joins the boot floor. I think also inner wings rust towards the front. The rear brake linings can come adrift too but that'll be obvious! Rear axle beam bushes, both rear wheels should be parallel when viewed from the rear.

Great cars. Good luck.

ETA. The MOT history suggests it's had welding in the usual areas, so check it's up to standard. Most things on these are easy to fix, it's the rear beam bushes that finish them off I think.
