I really don't understand fuckwits who do this.  Who thinks that anyone does a search for just "Ford"?  You'd get about a billion results, it'd be pointless.

What's that LHD thing behind the pig.

Some kind of French sans permis thing.  Ligier probably.

What an exciting fault! As long as the drivers side is still ok I can't see the problem, it's only the left hand side that will suffer.

My late dentist had one. The same day I was driving to an appointment in the 2cv through a very flooded chester ( I was ok until a truck put a bow wave over the bonnet) he was driving in from the Wirral. He said the water went up to the bottom of the windows and all the dash lights came on but he carried on going and the engine didn’t stall.  He had DPJ 1 as the reg for over forty years- the first car I remember it on was a green, late 1970s Mercedes SLC.

No it isn't.

To be fair, that Stanza is nearer to being tax & MoT exempt than this 1988 Uno, you'd think a dealer would know the rules.

"Although Tax & Mot exempt we can, for peace of mind have this car Mot tested for you"

It's missing the rubbing strip on the passenger side front wing which makes me wonder if the wing has been replaced, not the end of the world but it's not a cheap car.

But which clutch ...🤔

Anyone fancy doing a clutch change and a full belts change...

Would a Speedo drive from a left hooker be the same ?? 

Whichever brand and price you think is the right compromise. Unfortunately I don't know any of the 3 remaining brands but a quick Google search should give you an idea which brand has some experience in manufacturing quality parts.

Another problem for another day..

I’m thinking the one for the Scout camp run had an actual floor, or see the pack being the Anthill mob.

My lad went to scout camp in one of these, the sliding door fell off and that was its final journey...

Just call it an 825i and crack on.

Anyway, should be a simple enough engine to work on...

I see this as a learning oppertunity. You can compare both halves of the engine and see which bit is failing like having a template. Do it quick though before the other half borks.

Minerals?

Like... quartz?

The only place I've come across Minerals used in this kind of context is Ireland. Auld lads call fizzy pops minerals from Mineral Tonics.

Worth £350 for seats and engine. If you've got space and the facilities to take it to bits, probably worth snapping it up. 81k mileage isn't too scary.

Definatley considered it, before I was a bmw nerd I had a succession of pumas, including a late 01' puma Black with them mondeo fake split rims, fond memories! It's not far from me either...

Oh that's a real shame. Imported from Switzerland in the 90s and with the same owner ever since. Here it is spotted a few months ago at its North London home (not by me)

If it's going to be broken there are lots of bits I'd like for mine (wheels, bumpers) but it does seem that once something goes on Copart is just disappears forever

Well, I guess I'll be eating my hat for christmas dinner. Now on Facebook with a private seller. MoT'd til May 2022. Quite a lot of money, but you could make this into a very, very nice car I think.
