It’s superb. Any ideas what it will go for? I’m rather tempted - never really liked the look, but the interior looks perfect.

No idea but it's going for more than I'd be prepared to pay for one, given that Mercedes era is defined by the lack of rust proofing.

Owner reckons it can be driven on scooter licence but I'd be sceptical; would love a go

 

 

I stand to be corrected but the weight of that would class it as a quadricycle, so any sort of moped licence/provisional/'A' bike licence should do the job. In any event, even if the Old Bill did pull you (after a high-speed chase) they probably won't have a scooby as to whether you were breaking the law or not.

This looks nice for 250 quid.

Just like the one we had as a family car for a few years (except ours was dark blue). The 2.3 was strangely unrevvy for a VTEC, still went nicely though - apparently Honda's response to other manufacturers using V6s. 5-stud wheels, which made me wonder if they shared brakes with the Type R as everything else in the range was 4-stud.

None runner due to snapped choke + accelerator cable

Is the cable made out of unobtanium like my mates Granada throttle cable was?

Fuck a duck, a 1.3 Montego  :shock:

Sadly it's already more or less at what I'd be prepared to pay, with nearly a week left to run...

Jings, it's actually for sale! I do hope it gets fixed.

Showed this my Mrs and she really, really, liked it, and it's not very far away sadly. 

Fortunately, she can apply for her bus pass on Monday so it's not going to be in my garage. Pheeww !!
