Yeah unfortunately Rover (or BMW......) didn't have the foresight to do that and chose to put it in the box! The hydraulics simply aren't strong enough to take the strain of the diesel 75 clutches so are a weak point and ultimately fail. You may notice 75 clutches always feel alarmingly heavy 

I've never driven one to be honest, not a derv anyway. 

I was fancying one not so long ago as they seem a good blend of decent engine and not too old fashioned for it to become a chore to drive. 

Auto could be a good shout though.

Yeah I'd like a manual diesel, you can get 60mpg out of them on a run, I know manual is a risk on 75s and the diesels in particular as wuvvum said earlier, but I can never really get on with autos so its a risk I'd be willing to take!

Right, parishioners of the Autoshite Church. I've tried lecturing you into buying some shit for us all to laugh at, but now I'm going to preach from the lectern of first hand experience.

This must, MUST  be bought.  I can see of no sensible reason as to why this wouldn't be purchased and brought into the family.  

From what I can see, it's a Taxi Spec Diesel Granada.  My understanding is that it's a bit of a holy grail, and my wish is to see it on here.

Please.  Someone do an Autoshite.  I beg.

I saw this on Facebook earlier and came here to post it; this seems cheap.  Is this cheap?  It's an old, rare, Ford.  I'm as far from being a Ford person as it's possible to be, but I'm tempted.

Fancy something of a unicorn, with only 49 of them on the road and 88 in total? 

Only 13 of which being a 1997....

I present to you a Hyundai Accent COUPÉ Automatic!

s-l800(5).webp.769420452ee5bb447f39ae036173e39c.webp

6 months test, less than £1000. Probably an ok price but can't imagine there's much of a market for these things....

GIB!

It's not my cuppa tea and it's halfway across the country but someone must want it!

Seems like prime @DoctorRetro material if he hadn't just got the 323... They are both rare automatic Coupés after all! :)

You forgot the asterisk after "Coupé".

Want a Bristol project?

Damn. The Creed-bodied 401 is up there but sadly it's been painted in budget blue and is twice the price of a 'normal' 401 project despite the fact that I'm probably the only person in the world who really loves it. I had thought it was probably still in bare aluminium in a poly tunnel but I think this might actually be worse. I wonder what chance you'd have of finding all the trim etc buried in the garden and whatnot. Still would, though.

I think we've had this fella before. MoT-less 308 HDi, £500 Brum

"Good carvery good 

Cheap verypounds a year to tax"

 

As an aside, I still think of the 308 as a 'new' model so it makes me feel old to see scrap worthy examples like this

StreetKa that's definitely* not rusty. Advert says driver's airbag. My eyes say otherwise. £1500 Brum

I wonder how this gets an MoT? Either the airbag light is always on, or it's always off. Either is a fail, isn't it?
