I was looking on carandclassic last night.  I think they should change their website address to be www.lolhowmuch.co. They should be trying to encourage their users to price sensibly as I've pretty much stopped going in it now as all the prices bonkers and not reflective of what things really sell for.

Big portion of their sellers are flippers anyway.

Although both of the bargainous ADO16s recently purchased by shiters have come from C&C, so there must still be some genuine sellers on there.

There is some nuggets of gold in their but it's surrounded by so much over priced shite it makes it frustrating to use.

I think carandclassic would be in a a great position to turn themselves into the UK's bringatrailer and host curated auctions rather than just listing gallons of over priced shit.

I know Chris Harris is trying to do this with his collectingcars website but they don;t have the traffic carandclassic does.

Yes, I sold an Audi 100 and BMW 520 on there in the last couple of years for a nice profit each time.

Theyve both reappeared for even more since- in fact the Audi is on there at  the moment!

For C&C filter on £1000-£2500, or <£1000 but also with the For Sale filter on.  Otherwise you get loads of the 'hire a Ferrari' shite or parts for sale ads.

They certainly look it.

Oh look! A dismal Fiat Tipo Diesel with MOT for £300. 

I'd suggest it for @bramz7 but he's probably alreday owned it.

I think the red & white indicators is around 1960.

Touché!

It’s still on retention though, in spite of the fact that I bought another Skoda two years ago next month — which shows you how much I can be arsed with such things.

I think for your current vehicle you should try and see if SK12ZER is available.  Then that long forgotten refrain could echo once again through the streets of London: "Who the f*ck is Skizzer?"

I kind of forgot the porsche 968 even exists.. Was it any more than a warmed up 944? It  was built in the dark days of Porsche when they nearly went tits up in the early 1990s so I imagine

the 968 was an attempt to knock out a new model on the cheap.

They're not cheap anyway, this one is an auto with 195,000 miles on it and is the best part of 8 grand

Here's quite an interesting little article on how ex toyota engineers saved Porsche in the early 90's .

Looks like a 944/928 hybrid. Not even that quick. A standard t-5 would keep up.
