eBay tat volume 3.

Good memory, same colour, I reckon that was a good 14 years ago!  (EDIT: it was, bought Sep ‘05, sold Apr ‘06).  It was a time of low scrap value so I paid Shadow money for it.  Quite the sleeper with the Astra GTE engine.  Got scrapped after I sold it.

My Mum had one of these with the GTE engine, it was awful, but that's because it turned out to have been a written off ex undercover police car, all became obvious when she gave it the beans round some S bends and the rear window flew out, exposing that a new roof had been welded in..

And how did that turn out, Steve? 
Shush you!

(On the road in the summer of 2001 took a couple of bits off to improve it over the winter, then a few more bits then never went back together) sold in 2016 for £1500 which wasn't a bad shout..

had check this one and its washington state - many rain many snow

and mr magoo parking looking at the back of it (how much for screen m9? @PhilA )

*WOULD STILL USE AS RENTAL/BEATER

 

These ones were shit. Crappy chassis, crappy build quality, crappy everything

 

The one that replaced it (your white Dacia variant above) was significantly better. Redesigned chassis that doesn't flex when you look at it, much better interior, decent engine and significantly better QC. That was the point that Chevy woke up and smelled the coffee and started making a decent vehicle.

@PhilA remind me what paper tag means please

Temporary dealer paperwork. Similar to only having the bit of the V5 you hang on to before sending the other bit to the DVLA. 

Generally means you gotta wait for the DMV to send the new document before it can be re-transferred.

The interior of that Maxi brings back incredibly fond memories of mine and @garycox's old Allegro. Such comfort! Such Paprika! Looks lovely, that does. The sort of 'nice old car' I should own really, aged 34, instead of lots of broken but theoretically more valuable/unusual things I can't actually use.

That Metro is fantastic. Even still got its Metric tyres!!!! Beautiful.

This looks a steal if it wasn’t  the other end of country from me and even then I might even of contemplating buying it if I could of limped it back home but I think a 500 mile round journey and a non runner is pushing it to far to make out I’m only going to the local Tesco for a pint of milk lol

I wouldn’t mind I only want it for the bumper as the rear bumper on mine has slight lacquer peel so it’s a bit extreme to buy a car for a bumper when it would only cost me about £80 to sort it but you can never have enough E36s in my book lol

Looks like value to me. Tosser. ??

There is a reason they're very rare - because they were shit.

For the same price you could have the Capri in his other listing.
