Do you wanna be like vulgalour?

I wouldn't mind his skill set! ;-)

Looks like that needs similar sort of help.

They could have at least tacked on a Richard Hammond reference, to double the bidding.

It's an Astra in the home town of the home of the Astra, what's not to like*?

 

'commensurate with its age'

 

Does anyone else do that pretend la-di-da posh voice in their head when someone types 'commensurate' into an advert? 

 

*Don't answer that.

a rarity, I think? Lloyd 650.

Looks a little over-restored?

Gosh - There was a Lloyd under a tarp round the corner from me. As a teenager I knocked the door to see if I could find out what it was and if I could buy it. The wife told me her husband was going to restore it. A few years later it disappeared from the garden. That would of been late 80’s early 90’s. 

Might have been the same car...

You're just strange 😆

What could possibly go wrong, it’s an old Renault with a Diesel engine and four wheel drive. No nothing to see here!

I love those Scénic RX4's. Pretty rare now and usually fucked, that one looks a cracker. Defo the 21st century Rancho. Overall verdict: WOULD

Only at a Grand with 2 hours to go and no reserve, brakes were seized on and vendor has removed the pads, an hour with some WD40 and a big pry bar could see you drive it home. It’s MOT exempt and doesn’t really need brakes because someone has dropped an old no-turbo dizzlerin there- from memory that means between 60 and 80 bhp, depending on size.

That moment when you see your old car for sale on good old eBay. I sold this Jag V8 XJR R1 a couple years back as spares or repairs as it had serious engine issues. Somehow it has survived and done several thousand miles, but if you read the description it still has engine issues. It looks like it's had work done particularly on the interior, but it's still essentially a wreck. How it got an MOT is beyond me. Really, really fast car though. I'd have it back now I know so much more about them, but not at silly money...

Is that a new one for you or is it already on your list? 

Already on the list, I'm aiming to do a spreadsheet of all the known k platers during lockdown or Xmas.
