If the price of that is anything to go by then I chronically undersold mine. My old one looks like this now:

Wow,  on paper that shouldn't work, but in reality it looks pretty good! I see it failed mot in December... hopefully the owner will retest at some point.

No way! 'Sad face' Fiesta IV was a quantum leap forward compared to puddingy MK3. 

But then I would say that as a 'proud' Puma driver. 

It's not a Mk3 though, an Si is quite a different beast altogether (rattly old CVH lump aside)

Think he’s sorting it over winter, saw him post on the Lancia Thema consortium group looking for a front subframe a few weeks back, he seems a good lad and the mods are tasteful. Used it as his wedding car and his late grandfather had one so probably has a lot of sentimental value to him.

That's good news. It looked a really genuine example and infinitely cleaner than the one shared on here recently. The fact he used it as his wedding car instantly ups the sentimentality stakes too!

Pumas are fantastic things!

Oh dear.  That's back on again.

I am going to have to go down to the petrol station tonight and spend 10 minutes staring at the price display so that I don't do something silly.

Think of it as price per gallon. It's  heading upwards to £7 a gallon.

That's a lot of ninefourfour for £notalot. 

No trace of previous MOT history so it's been sitting somewhere for an eternity. Must be a proper rotter surely? They've aged so well though...

I bet the sills are rotted out, if they’re not it’s probably a good buy as a snotty 944.

Yeah it looks like they're all reversible and it's in good hands, you don't buy something as rare as that without wanting it for a good reason

I am always nostalgic for the world that now only exists in old Top Gear episodes, a world I barely knew. Whether it was the Renault 19 turning left at the traffic lights next to the Amphibious cars, the Audi 80 for 100 quid, or just seeing cars that looked different from each other on the road. It was a different time, and I wish I could have experienced it more.

 

However I am not nostalgic enough to by a ragged, miserable timebomb of an Audi estate

Wonder what stops you using you 405 pickup with flames down the side.
