Miserable, uninviting, falling to bits, damp and probably stinks. But that's enough about Cleethorpes, look at this Mammoth Major

'used very lightly for six months of the year to move our Victorian carousel'

 

He said, in a roundabout way.

The background in the pictures make it look like it might belong to someone of a erm 'mobile tree surgeon' persuasion (not that there's anything wrong with that) and the best news is its got the right type of engine.

Hands up who wants a caravan that has a sticker on the back that might say 'I have entered my cousin!'

The inside is fantastic.*

 

 

Edit: *Of the caravan, not my cousin'

 

Edit again: Not that I know what my cousin is like inside.

Can't see a fucking barn m8.

(I'm 80% sure that went through @BeEP's hands a few years ago).

Yes, mine from 2012 (I think) until autumn 2016 (see photo in my cars thread).  Was a really solid car with an exceptional interior.  I suspect the subsequent owner has swapped it for the interior in one of his others and just thrown whatever he had left into it.  No front carpets, badly split passenger's seat, dashboard and all plastic trim broken or ill-fitting.  As with most of his other cars it was stored on grass, which has doubtless contributed to the welding now needed.  Not sure when he sold it on, although I notice it's never been MOTd again. I suspect it will still make a fair bit more than I sold it for though!

What a shit day for the owner of this :(

That’s heartbreaking.

An original UK SM, 73k, on its third owner, Nyree Dawn Porter’s car in The Protectors, original interior, manual and carbs.

Ethanol in petrol eating fuel hoses can fuck right off.

Here it is in happier times.

This is WELL FIT YO and £3k doesn’t seem excessive.

Flippin’ beige, too. Bring it on.

I grew up on the south coast of England and these seemed to be exclusively driven by rich very old ladies with purple rinses. 

Does anyone else have the same connotations with mk1 MR2s? Was it the same in affluent areas elsewhere in the country? Mrs Barrington-Smythe, driving her two tone MR2 to the shops with her red terry towling safari suit and alligator handbag.

07 for £800? that seems cheap, is it Merc engine in these?
If so its worth it as I loved the 2.7 Merc 5-pot.

It's saying 2.7 so I would say yes. 

Is a great engine, only issue is the injector seats really and a few elements of the crappy cdi system. 

Remove cat innards for many more bhp's and mpg's, I even gained an extra gear in mine!!!
