Was on a week or two ago for £1200, in Thamesmead (as per first pic). If the new owner has actually done that stuff it might be worth the extra £1300... but they could have at least cleaned it and taken some decent photos. Consider me wary.

So approach with caution but it still seems a pretty good price. Good ones are going around the £6k mark at the moment. Pre face-lift too so it has the better interior. The seats aren't real leather but after 55 years that's not a bad thing, they're nice seats. And it has the white dials so another plus. Strange paint effect around the front arches suggests work there so study carefully (the front arches are double skinned so you can't get to the back of them). Would still consider that if I was looking for another one. Especially when things like this are going on:

Another early Favorit.  Not particularly cheap though and needs a bit of work.

What's going on here then?

I love those early Favorits. I owned one in 1992, a "J" registration one, that looked identical to this one, and it was a lovely car. The early ones embodied that ruggedness for which Skodas  were famous, but with the more normal arrangement of front engine and drive, together with much better handling than the Estelles. All in all, this would make a great classic starter car for anyone looking for one.

Did those 50000 something miles before going in for its first MoT perhaps?

A rusty old relic with a fucked engine and cat's arse wiring. And a Datsun.

There are (currently) two pictures on this listing. If the first doesn't help sell it...

...then maybe a photograph of a cupboard full of pop and Red Bull will. Especially if someone in the distance appears to be having a shit in the middle of a field

Remember that episode of 'Some Mothers Do 'ave 'em' when the BBC came round to film Frank after his DIY exploits?

Pro-level Aldi shopping there. Snackrite crisps, Vive cola and orange fizzy pop, Red Thunder. Cans of Taurus cider too if I'm not mistaken (they look quite like Strongbow so could be that)

It's lovely, but loses points for having an automatic gearbox and too few cylinders, and for wearing WTF? tyres and being slathered in its own body weight of tyre shine. 

Further points deducted for the wanky write-up. And for...

As with many Rovers of this era there are a few quirky electrical issues

...the fact that it's broken. And two grand.

"Windforce Catchgreg P100" has to be up there with "Luckyland Happy Gallop" in the comedy tyre names.
