All of the fun of a classic Saab without any of the inconvenience of not having seats from your school bus. 

There is probably a whole new thread in there - 'Bizarre Car Fabrics and Seat Covers'. I think the ever tasteful Lady Docker had one  Daimler show car done in Zebra hide. 

With the Saab you'd have to sit in the back all the time and surreptitiously snog  someone when the driver isn't looking.

Anyone fancy a Scirocco GT "Barn Find" ?

The seller has decided to put a random mileage in the advert when the speedo shows the exact mileage on the last MOT, which it passed with rust warnings in 2017 and has possibly sat there ever since.

https://www.gumtree.com/p/volkswagen/volkswagen-scirocco-gt-1990-manual-1781-cc-3-doors-barn-find/1388857126

£600 - ask for Peanut, no idea why

 

Looks like JU(N)K

That reg plate 😬

Do you want a Chrysler 300C Estate? Just Hooooow badly would you like one? Would being LHD be a put off?

Or the fact It's a little rough...

Yup, just a little

Surely thats the only issues right? I mean it is the Reliable Mercedes engine...

Quote

Currently full exhaust system(turbo back) is been removed by previous owner,but also present(can easy put it back on).

DPF and Catalyc converter present,all genuine.

O/S/F Tyre have slow puncture.

Windscreen got small crack.

EML light is on due to exhaust and dpf not been fitted.

Errrrr....

10 people (so far) have bid it up to £1200 and its still not met its reserve.

Low mileage '91 Riv with the indestructable 3800 that someone still managed to mess up somehow. Only 500 quid atm though, would be a great lockdown project for someone.

Trying to think which forum member this would suit. Despite not knowing what she actually looks like, in my mind's eye I can see MarvinsMom sat in this, effing and jeffing as the mysterious 'Kerry' pushes her down a potholed back lane on an industrial estate through some mucky oily puddles down to the unit where their Mini is stored

"MoT and tax exempt". I'm sure that somewhere in those regs there's something about "substantial modifications" meaning you're seriously fooked.

Also on offer is the Jeeves and Wooster 1955 Bentley Pink Panther get away with it scot free kit...

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/284064500998

But for all the tech blagney the TU engine is not all aluminium just the head and in a frontal accident that sub-frame will end up in the cab. Interesting though - home counties Mad Max - I like the 'deconstructed' dashboard, like one of those cakes on Bake Off, interesting but best left alone.

Comes with the optional in-car entertainment - a large brass ear trumpet...

And optional heating - a thick plaid rug.

I doubt his creation is notably better or worse for crashworthiness than the original mind you!!!

I would love to see that rebel with the body off though. How do you join a Metro subframe to a car with a placca shell and separate 'girder' chassis like this?

I bet its a right horror show!!!!

 

 

[lesapandre]

The trouble is I find it strangely  alluring.

Diesel ✔

Tax and MoT exempt ✔

LEZ and ULEZ exempt ✔

'Hatchback' ✔

Through a VOSA check wd probably see me go straight to jail.

If you get pulled...possibly........if it's been well done, it may be almost worth seeing if you could declare the mods with DVLA, cross your fingers and hope.........

Another '£500 personalised numberplate' that just happens to be the same year as the car itself

Every clause in this advert makes me not want to engage with the seller.

are the wings bolt on or welded I wonder?  Guessing maybe welded if he is getting shot rather than fix it up. Shame it's an auto as I could quite fancy that and not too far from me
