Lot of work involved, but surely £450 is a bit of a bargain?

You can get one that doesn't require thousands in paint work for less than a grand more, all the time!

On a scale of 1-10 how explodey is the Northstar?

Legend has it they can run on no coolant, but that is probably bolex.

A doomed, over-complex, green-blooded Citroen project. But ignore the C6 in the background and get a load of this CX.

Then search the autoshite archives for @Junkman’s terrifying tales of international newspaper running in them.

How bloody ace does this look?

I think you'll struggle to find a better van/camper/WAV/motorbike carrier around that money.

I'm always confused when it's £1000 start or best offer. Does that mean they want £5000 for it? 

I agree though it's decent. Despite the NA diesel it's a proper conversion with a thick steel ramp. 

If it was actually £1000 I'd buy it then take my mum out in it for a few day trips. She lives near Tavistock ( @HMC land) and the wheelchair taxi service is £££ and unreliable. I've often thought there's a good living to be made providing a decent wheelchair taxi service.

It's been used as a van and has some lights on the dashboard. Could be a cheapo though.

That's a great ULEZ beater van vehicle but I suspect that's what it's already been used as. I remember someone saying the 2.0 pez was slow AF but that wouldn't matter in London as you rarely get above walking pace anyway.

Most engines would.

not. 

To be fair to it, it is miniature, based on a mobility scooter, built from the ground-up and even has a smoke machine for max trotters-running-from-fallen-chandelier-mansion nonsense rather than taking the usual Robin with 1/4 ton of wob and b&q mixed yellow rubbish.

I always assume it means £1,000 ono, but some people get shitty if you drop an offer in. It's easier to just set the bottom price to reject offers below 'X' amount.

£400 with MOT in Herne Bay, be quick!

The "1 year's MOT" is doing a bit of heavy lifting. It's got 7 months.

Reading the current minors on it, that's going to need welding before the next one too.

"Nearside Rear Inner Seat belt anchorage prescribed area is corroded but not considered excessive sill (7.1.1 (a) (i))

Offside Rear Inner Seat belt anchorage prescribed area is corroded but not considered excessive sill (7.1.1 (a) (i))"

yup agree with all that, just quite rare to find anything sub £500 with a bit of test and actual 'shite' these days.
