Seems to be a lot of negativity towards this but I really don't see the problem. It's not like it's a mint car. If it was that would be different. Oddly the MOT history says it's blue, registered in 2017 and hasn't had its first MOT yet. Either way you can bet there's a lot going on underneath that we don't know about and if this engine keeps it going then why not. 

And it's a Peugeot diesel so it's all Rootes group. I know somebody who runs a Rover P5 with a Transit diesel as a daily, though he has others in more original condition. It's no different. I think its a good idea for a daily. I'd say it's the spirit of Autoshite and I'm surprised at the negative reaction. Apart from the price of course, that's batshit. £1k tops I'd say. 

Yeah I reckon a 50s barge with an XUD is my perfect daily driver tbh. The Humber boys like to do a thing at car shows where they lift their bonnets, start their cars and balance a £1 coin on the rocker cover to demonstrate the silky smooth idle of those old understressed straight-sixes. I'd love to rock up in that beast and try the same thing - possibly with a large lead weight, but even that might be pushing it.

Phwoar. Be like @vulgalour only quite a lot shabbier and older. I particularly like the 710 flap.

This got me momentarily and irrationally excited until I realised it wasn't a rare Lanchester 10 cab, just a TX1 parked behind it.

I thought we agreed, you weren't going to mention my 710 flap on the internet.  Not after last time.

The last time I saw one of those was in South Africa somewhere near Cape Town so it was a Chevrolet Commodore. Would've been 2006. We were in a long queue of traffic trying to get past because it was on a narrow coastal road with crazy amounts of steam spewing out from the front end. That one is way more fucked than the one I saw in 2006

How much is a replacement auto box these days?

£lots.  It's the thing that usually kills the cars so finding a good secondhand one is not easy.

A UK spec Subaru SVX...

Gearbox is semi-fucked with no 4th gear, but being sold as a project...currently at £365, but below reserve (Which I'm guessing it much much higher!)
