I’ve got vague memories of one of these (possibly in gold?) on here a few years ago. Can anybody remember happened to it?

This one’s a little tatty, but has years mot. Can’t be many other running cars this rare for £1295 any more

It was a Riviera, so a bit bigger than that.  I bought it off Bramz, sold it via roffle and it was won by Sealtainn, who then spent a small fortune getting the ABS sorted.  It may or may not then have gone to Bulgaria.

Mysterious and scary Nova for £500 in Heathrow. Reveal your secrets Mr Nova

 

 

That's got to be a scam or hoax of some sort,  probably worth six or seven times the asking price absolute minimum.

I'd need to see.

1) The sellers ID.  Passport, and driving licence.

2) An enhanced DBS certificate or Disclosure Scotland with proof that he has no criminal record.

3) Proof that he bought the property 5 years ago.  

4) The V5 in his name first. 

5) check that the numbers on the V5 matched the numbers on the car.

 

Actually Just 4.  If it were a legitimate, story, he'd get the V5 in his name and flog it for 4k.

Woah, I've never seen an AX as late as P reg. Surely the Saxo was out by then.

They had alot of excess stock of the A and the X so it was just using up those really

I have a feeling that 2 door Avengers, and most likely 4 doors as well will be overpriced in ten years time as the restomod scene will look at Ford Escrot alternatives as they've become too expensive. That's my prediction.

Shite wheels on this one, but this is lovely as is:

Any ideas on what else in particular will go up in price in the 70's saloon category. I believe Imps will go up even more, but that's technically a hatchback.

Well, Mystic Meg, at £4K for a scrap Avenger I think this one is already overpriced.

Anything RWD and small to medium-sized really: Vivas  and Kadetts spring to mind.  Manta and Ascona are already on their way up.  Rootes Arrow series are also climbing.  Marinas are picking up but not at the same speed.  I'm a bit surprised the humble Minor hasn't been grabbed in the same way; it's light and simple and is basically an MG Midget under the skin.  I know it's been an established classic for decades but you can still find them at remarkably reasonable prices.  Ditto the Austin A40.  Old Toyotas  and Datsuns?  Most have rotted away and the survivors seem to be up between GM  and Ford in terms of pricing.

One I learnt today - the Subaru Vivio kei car....

Vivio is roman numerals

VI VI O = 660cc

Possibly rubbish.

interestingly with a different seller only a week or so after last listing ended

It has gained a broken spring and a fuel leak in that time. Presumably quite a few hidden gremlins in this. Probably still would.
