Ah, a being after my own heart. Chris Hoy was really a rather good driver.

Did you mean Will Hoy..?

Funnily enough I did. Good spot

 

Bicycles, cars, they're all wheeled transportation devices...

It might only be £650 to buy, but also £585 to tax!  Which possibly has an influence on the asking price.

I bought one of those for Mrs 95 a few years ago, from Newark auctions, took it home, perfect... went to tax, on ebay the same night

I’ve just worked out that I’m covering 20,000 miles a year, I should probably sack off the RAV4 at its 45mpg and get one of these at 60+ mpg

3 door is slightly more interesting than the 5 door and the 1.4 diesel can be cheaply mapped to 120bhp.  But by Christ silver paint does nothing for it🙁

Must admit that's a new one on me, always believed these had the 2.0l as a minimum. 

Looks a really decent car, got I know had a pez one and his dad too, reckons they were seriously unbreakable. 

The Toyota garage he used had one in after a major incident and it was still running but scrap only. 

They did a "5th gear" job on it and drained all the oil out too see how long it would still run for, I think it was the full 10hr day, switched off, restarted the next day and ran out of fuel first!!! 

Agree totally boring but very reliable. 

Once I move some shit on I may consider one of these

And i'm done. If you have alternates please hit me up.

I think I posted a Vectra SRI on here a wee while back, only done 45k allegedly and is a little crispy at the rear arch but otherwise good. In a proper colour too, red.

Red is the appropriate colour for this particular fantasy. GUD JOB

Describing rust as "traditional corrosion" is really a fantastic marketing ploy.

"This car has all the structural rigidity of a freshly used wank-sock!" "Yes sir, as is tradition"

i didnt think it was daft for what (in its day) was the flag ship model of a 1 owner car with 78k on tbh. I'd give 2 grand for it if i can sell my TT

Fair point, and I absolutely love them but it just seems a little expensive, I guess I thought of them as not a rare car, which is wrong the V6 was always a rare.  it was a shock that they are worth that much really.

As for your TT, I wish I could get into one 😬
