Yes, on reflection I can see how volunteering to do 'some welding and paintwork' on this 'small project' might lead to instant bankruptcy

He's lucky they dropped it off, there's plenty that never their car back after a garage/body shop has gone under.

That looks like a couple of weeks work for you Bo11!

The only way that is going to be "very nippy" is if the doors fall off in the middle of a blizzard

Yep - intercooler sits on top of the engine in these and the scoop feeds directly into that.

I also believe that only the non-turbo models get the low range, so that's another check over a simple bonnet swap.

That numberplate has got to have some value within the homosexual community.

'been in the steel industry around rotheram all of its life'

'low millage' 

 

'1st owner - british steel
2nd owner -  corus steel
3rd owner - tata steel
4th owner  - me'
 
So just three mills from new?
 
 

Not one I ever got to drive, but I'm sure* it was driven with the utmost care like we always did on the steelworks.

The Mercedes R-Class is now officially in shite-territory:

2.5k with body damage but proper V8 so who cares!

That seems a lot of money for a mega mile write off that looks as if it probably smells like a Cavcraft Zafira.

ive always fancied one, just not that one unless it was half the price.

Fuck a duck that is tempting!  I've always had a soft spot for these for some reason - maybe because the utter pointlessness of them makes them prime futureshite material.

I remember TG magazine describing those as 'the car to take six executives off roading'. But what actually was it? MPV? Crossover? I guess it was just quickly OBE by the SUV craze.

Actually, looking at R Classes on eBay, there seems to be a few of them going for around £3K - although most of them are diesels.

BONDWATCH. In its natural habitat

However, it's a new one for my REGISTER, which is always good to see despite the condition. I give this a 600 to one chance of going back on the road, sadly.

It's got 'the bits' though, at least

'collection kelsall Wirral.'

 

To be pedantic, they've probably missed out the word 'not' between Kelsall and Wirral. There's a BFO hill on Kelsall bypass that might have been ideal for racing a Porsche 924 in a Cortina 2.3 many years ago.

Why can't we have cars listed like buildings? This would look magic just bought back to life enough to be used, rather than some spacky Lotus replica.

When I worked at the dealer, the R was one of the few models I really liked. I hated the ML and GL it shared oily bits with, but the R drove far better than either of them. R350d in LWB spec was like a roadgoing Intercity 125.

Cuz its kollektorz edishun innit..

even though its basically paint and a few stickers!!!

Has there ever been a ‘collectors edition’ model of a car that’s actually worth significantly more than the normal version?

The only thing I can think of is an Escort Harrier, possibly?
