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.

You could make almost anything into a very very nice car if you throw enough time and money at it.

That's hilariously fucking overpriced for the condition it's currently in, and being a left-hooker won't help it either.

 

I paid £700 (admittedly on here) for a 1.8D with an MOT until August 2022 in similar, if not marginally better, cosmetic condition.

Phase 1 GT tho, that's a pretty desirable spec. But yeah, I think it's more than double its true value at the moment. Wonder what it sold for on Copart?

The  ex-Parducci ice creàm van sold minerals, their nearby rivals called them aerated waters.  Hardly any point when the punters asked for a bottle of juice, or ginger anyway.

MOT history on that is a depressing tale of neglect but at least someone finally bothered to fix the CV boots after being told for 7 years on the trot they were almost fooked. Looks like a £500 car to me.

Early MK1 Fiestas came in cool non metallic colours. Very seventies.

For me, that is the ur-Transit. It probably varies depending on your birth year or spirit animal but that early-80s black grille seems perfect to me. Ford does 'functional' really well. The first Transit Connect is another good example. 

Unfortunately I only like panel vans and not pickup.

I don't normally shout out to this local trader who is a bit mark-up happy, but this is such a glorious failure of a car. The Concorde of motoring. For the man who doesn't really care if he arrives or not. 

Lancia Gamma Coupe 2.5

£10k starting price, Leamington Spa

Leyland DAF LDV Van with a cupboard in it. £995 Cov. 

"The van has been used for fishing trips over night stays so it's very clean inside and outside."

Forget AA check, I'd want a CSI check on that mattress

Ahhhh, one of those "dual fuel" Labias

I'd put a "haha" reaction to that but it won't let me. I reckon the car is having an identity crisis. 😆

I vaguely* rember the Mk1 being launched. Later, Dad replaced the Commer PB1500 van I practised driving in with a Mk 2 van after I'd passed the test. Later, a M8 lent me his long-nose twin rear wheel Mk 1 to move house, which got nicked after we'd unloaded it. Ford locks were atrocious.

The most amazing thing about this is the sweets in the window looks to be from about about 1994

The  Parducci's ice cream van. Wowsers. My childhood right there! 😂

Many a memory of hearing the tune, then belting down three flights of stairs to get some bruiser bars and a tube of toffos to chew on. I'm almost tempted!
