"Due to winning bidder soph5759 (46) wasting everybody’s time not making contact  you all have a second charge to bid on this unique Mk2 Vauxhall Astra/Lego car" 

Can"t say I blame them for having 2nd thoughts on this state of an Astra Mk2 ?

Can't show you it as she hasn't removed her rubbish yet. But i have a feeling it's not really worth the effort of pushing the camera button anyway.

Apparently these low spec ones are really rare. But they're not really...

Did check the reg between the two, in case it was the same one being resold. 

Was red a base spec colour? @Six-cylinder may know I guess?

Last picture on that advert did make me chuckle though. Presumably auto generated.

That's the correct A series in the maestro they use a VW box rather than the mini in sump type gearbox.

Tasty CX Pallas restoration project from the continent. Doesn't look bad for 675 quid:

Or you could have this.....:

This is the second time this one has come up in the last couple of years. I think this might be the one which Keith Adams (ex-CCW; now Parkers) had for a while. I don't remember the mileage being 77,000 when it was previously offered; thought it was higher.....

The eBay description is either careless (quite a few inconsistencies between the main text and the "item specifics"), or there's something dodgy going on.

If this is a genuine auction, then the next owner should keep a very close eye on that automatic gearbox. And the state of the coolant hoses. And the alternator. And the wiring......

Ah. So A series like in a midget, with separate box ? You learn something new every day.

RE was not base spec, it had luxuries such as radio, rear wipe-wash and front head restraints.

Red was available on most early AXs.
