That number plate will be appropriate if you spend 17 years fixing the bike and putting it into a white room. Assuming @strangeangel doesn't buy it first.

 

That's very like the one I did have a while back (albeit mine still had the super rare tin leg-shields). I spent a tidy sum on new engine parts and getting it all put back together, but the old magic just wasn't there, and it never got finished. I hope the 'shiter I sold it to has managed to get it back on the road as he was hoping.

What's the score with the floor shift; presumably it would have come with 3-on-the-tree? Bloody stupid with a bench seat.

4-on-the-tree on that year.  But yep, column shift works better with a bench seat - avoids the middle passenger being elbowed in the knackers every time you go for second gear.

Thank you, but a camper isn't really what I wanted.  Anyway, having no cash means it'd have to be up for swopsies...  Right engine though, and the right front end!  I would guess that one's been laid up for a while, look how little air is in that back tyre.  It's probably reasonable to assume there's a lot of work in that.

I wouldn't have given that Renault Savannah a second glance back in the day but I'm drawn to it now. If I wasn't over capacity and under funded I'd be on my way to fetch it tomorrow morning, despite having no real use for it.

My girls would probably enjoy the novelty of being picked up from school and having a row of seats each I guess.

I still want to try one of these 2-pot LNAs, but there's little chance of me being able to sort one out within the next 7 weeks, and after that such things look set to get rather more awkward...

I suppose it's the knock-on effect of 2CV values heading for the stratosphere. 

I wish the similar increase in Mini prices would hurry up and have the same effect on Innocenti values...

Is there even a town or city left in Britain that hasn't got a rotting CF camper on a drive somewhere?

That one's been knocking around for ages which suggests either (a) overpriced or (2) totally fucking fucked m8

If it's a Rover and you haven't entertained buying it, then it's not worth bothering with!

I've owned one of these and they're ace little people movers. With only a 4-speed auto, they're very low geared which is great for around town and powering up hills but less great for motorway use.

This one looks in superb condition - 83,000 miles and decent cosmetics too. No rusty arches, but it does look like there's a leak into the third row storage well. That said, at that price if this were in NZ I'd probably bite. 

Clap-hand wipers with a pantograph on the passenger arm too! :D

Kind of wish I didn't sell mine. :(
