They produced a wide variety of dubious kits and body conversions from a small industrial unit down the road from me. I remember they used to have a whole lot of stripped out/cut down Skoda Rapid coupes outside for their iffy Porsche Speedster replicas. From my moniker you can imagine that this brought a tear to my eye. grogee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

God I love ‘em How have we never talked about that? I'm obsessed with those things. That actually looks like a pretty good starting point, despite how it looks. The wheels are probably worth 50% of the price, and I can spot a few other choice bits - four-branch manifold, Aquaplane remote oil cooler, short rad and remote header tank, plus it's properly registered. Wish I had loads of money, cause that could be a real nice car with a lot of work... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying you're wrong - but something is wrong if this is six figures. On one hand it seems nuts, but on the other... £100k isn't really a lot of money these days. That's how much a cheap Range-Rover costs. If somebody just paid £115m for an old Mercedes... Anything old and actually collectible is pushing a million quid minimum these days, and £100k doesn't get you much in the old car world. A few years ago I was at the auction where the W196 sold for £20m, which is arguably about as useful as a Peel Trident. Obviously all that money is just gross and there really shouldn't be people out there who have that kind of disposable income when so many people in the world are struggling to survive, but those people do exist, and they sometimes buy cars, and that pushes the price of everything up to the point where six figures for a stupid microcar - even one as instantly recognisable and highly prixed as that - doesn't strike me as that much of a big deal.
