colino Posted June 20, 2021 Share Posted June 20, 2021 Surely the Fiat 127 must have been the most popular rotter of all time? They were there everywhere, now none to be found. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know people ask all the time, but does somebody here actually have a Copart account and has anyone successfully bought a car via the site? I'd say that £300 RNM suggests it's gonna be overpriced, but I'll be watching with interest A friend of mine on the Volvo 480 Club Forum saved a 480 turbo on there, extremely rare, but they half regret it, as it meant an 800 quid car had to be got for 1400 when you include all the fees, and then they charge you to hold it there until it is picked up, or you can have it delivered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, looks like it's got too few cylinders to be a Scimitar, unless for some unknown reason they decided to downgrade to a four-pot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sierraman Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 Were I a betting man I would say in about 10 years time £50 for a genuine factory Ford Focus rear quarter panel will be a bargain when all the OSF tax hits Mk1 Focuses and some loon is paying ££££ for any new old stock panels.

I think the truth is far, far more sad, assessing the crime scene and looking at the body shape, front suspension and pinto engine, my money is on this being an Eagle RV and the murder victim being a Ford Cortina not Scimitar or Escort.

Well you could buy it and keep it in your living room for the next ten years. Funnily enough my brother sold some if his old new stock Capri parts a while ago and had people falling over themselves to bid on stuff like a headlamp pod.
