Nice. I love the styling of the mk2. I reckon the shiny paintwork hides a multitude of sins on that particular example though - tell me the rear arches don't have structural wob...

Probably find an old copy of the News of the World in there.

Bidded and may bid again before the listing ends. """You're the high bidder but the reserve price has not been met"""

Sadly far to much welding for me but iam sure i could enlist someone to do it! 

EDIT

Reason for edit

I FUCKING LOVE VELOUR!

I wish you the best of luck. The 2.0 auto IS the best engine/powerhouse combo a guy could want. I’ve seen that listed a few times on evilbay and hummed about it. Ok it wants sills and a new fuse box. And if that’s it, then get it boughted. We can be auto Carlton buddies foreva! If that’s how the saying goes. Maybe. I dunno.

Cringe. Rover V8s might have been the answer 30 years ago but people converting Esprits now use Audi V8s. A small weight penalty but nearly double the horsepower that you'd spend £10k trying to get the Rover V8 to make reliably. It won't even be a decent TVR Power V8 either, it'll be some manky piece of shit (wow, a 'high compression 3.5!!!!!!') ripped out of a P6 3500 or SD1 which had 140bhp back when it wasn't fucked three ways from oblivion.

I saw something like this at a Motorsport show at Stoneleigh in about 2019, it was happily circulating on a rally track. I remember thinking it was an unlikely combo, especially for rally, but I suppose the most troublesome bits had been 'upgraded'.

Yeah, the Greek/Cypriot Esprit had a lot of engine work done, and they didn't start with a 'high compression' scrap 3.5. 

There was also an MG Metro '8R4' built for a customer BITD. 

Please note - I am not ragging on the Rover V8; they can and do make decent power, but 'us true car guys' treating it like a talisman of OMG POWER like it's 1975 really do need to sack it off now.

I like these. Big, fugly, pointless boot. This one has the reliable* 4x4 system. It would be nice to have that for the coming cold snap.

Fugly? Yes, from the rear certainly but the dual hatch or boot lid was novel. Ace cars anyway, not that I’m biased at all🙄

Fiat 127

Sorry if we've already had this, can never keep up with the thread. I had a blue one of these as my first car in 1988, UME13S, although mine did have inner wings

Had me fooled at first as more convincing acting than the real one can manage.
