And a 1.4 pezza to boot... that must have a turn of speed akin to tectonic plate movement.

Maybe the, errrrr.... stickers along the edge of the windscreen are there to distract you from the blistering performance? 😳

I used to drive a early 90s Trafic 1.4 Hi-top for work back around 1997/8. It was absolutely woeful.
 

We got it secondhand from a pig farmer and it absolutely stank - the ply lining got ripped out and burned within hours. All the rear bumpers were missing, as were the door locks. Obviously this heap was seen as fit to carry the company’s livery and was quickly pressed into action delivering washing machines etc. 
 

We once got a bulk deal from Hotpoint on a load of WMs and they delivered the lot in one hit on a large lorry. We didn’t have room at the stores for them (excellent planning) so I shifted them down to the boss’s farm about 15 miles away. We had the Trafic loaded to the roof with WMs and the fucker would barely move from a standstill. Every junction and roundabout needed to be approached just fast enough to carry momentum that it didn’t stop,  and slow enough that it wouldn’t fall over.

After that I used to take the old Bedford Midi home at night so that I was guaranteed to be able to use it the next day rather than the Trafic.

One for @castros_bropossibly, although I will never understand why people can't at least throw a bucket of water over a car before trying to sell it...

Sent him/her/they a message, wonder if i can find someone near Diss to check the wheel bearing, rear beam axle bearings and general poke of rusty areas?

It’s all the money , but look at it. The Gordini I had at 19 would see off 3 litreCapris , although it very rarely completed a journey without a fuelling problem, I actually bought a TL identical to this to do a carb conversion- of course it never happened and both ending up getting scrapped, probably why there’s not many around now .

The rear wings look so unusual on this that I didn’t even notice the metal roof until I read the description.

AH-HARRR......................YOU HAVE A METAL ROOF MY LORD

Image result for captain rum blackadder

I'd wager that roof couldn't sustain the weight of an entire naval frigate, seaman and all?

etc.

May be an image of outdoors

Absolutely bloody glorious.  I have no idea

1.  How I'd move it (no axles, no motor) 

2. What I'd use it for

3. What it's worth (£123456)  

 

But it looks amazing and looks like it ought to be useful for something.  Perhaps as a garage for a Mini?!

Yep - they used to be big advertisers 20 odd years ago when I was working for SGR/Radio Broadland!
