And your starter question for tonight University of Autoshite...how many different names did that car have in its life?

Chrysler Horizon - Talbot Horizon - Dodge Omni - Plymouth Horizon. 

And for your follow up - in which country was the car designed to run on turpentine - Finland!

My grandparents had a talbot horizon, c reg. silver with an interior with red piping. Narrowly avoided crashing when he had a heart attack driving it. Then laid up for two years with about 3000miles on it.  My dad sold it to a 6th former at school ( kings way in Chester) for a couple of hundred when motorbility came in and they had a Megane. I liked the looks and it replaced a yellow Talbot with white bumpers. Model name escapes me.

Body designed in the UK by Roy Axe - and European Car of the Year 1979. But - wedded to some wheezy rattley old Simca engines that dented sales somewhat. Very rust prone - only a handful left in UK out of the 842,000 built in all Europe.

The Shelby ones are actually pretty quick & have a cult following in the USA.

But then they do have a 2.2 eng rather than the air-cooled diesel simca eng ours had.

"I've got a Shelby..."

"Cobra?"

"Na...Horizon" (Dodge)

Chrysler saw the car as a sunrise over their European horizon - but really it was their sunset they could see...

I think PSA bought the whole shebang for one pee.

Is that where the pepper street car park is now?

No, it's Victoria Road,  later became James Edwards (BL/Rover/LandRover) along from the Northgate Arena.  When they moved and downsized to Stadium Way off Sealand Road, the old place got knocked down and turned into about 158,000 poncey apartments.

This is a very strange advert, a nearly new car in the classic section. No mention of the car but it is an XF in a good colour with a good colour interior and long MOT. Not even silly mileage. For a modern car this is very respectable and could be a bargain.

This is probably the best picture! Wait until you see the main picture! They really don’t want to get the best price for this.

Oh is this the way they say the future's meant to feel?

Or just a shagged out Morris Minor standing in a field? 

And I don't quite understand what this filler is

looks like pigeon shit welding coated with some monkey jizz

and tell me when the spaceship lands coz all this is held together with farmer's string-ing

 Oh, and in the middle of the seat

it feels alright but then tomorrow morning

Oh, oh, then you come down oh

Oh yeah, the LW radio told us what was going down

Atlantic 252's playlist going round and round

Oh, and no-one seems to know exactly when it'll end

Birdhouse In Your Soul driving you round the  fucking bend

And in Shrewsbury (Shrops) the normal world is very very far away

And in the middle of the sills

it  rained over night and then tomorrow morning

oh, oh when they fell down, oh

Everybody knows your name they say we're all the same and now its

No Legs, Shadow

but that's as far as the rear end went.

I lost my lens, now one's alone

It's a pile of shit and I don't wanna take it home

But the scrapyard said 'no way, not today'

and that's far as the HIAB went

And the hollow feeling grows and you want to call your wife

and say 'Hun, I can never come home again

'cause I seem to have  spunked an important  chunk of  the housekeeping somewhere

somewhere in a field in Shropshire, all right'

In the middle of the night

it might look alright, but then tomorrow morning

Oh, oh, when the floor comes down

Oh, oh, the whole thing's brown

Oh, what have you bought, you clown?

ULEZ refugee Audi A6 Avant that's only missing quattro to be the holy Grail (manual 2.8 V6) for just 850 quid.

https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/1457057548171518/

It even has a 3rd row seating setup I've never seen in one of these before. I'm not a fan of the exterior color but love that Audi offered this green leather as conventional factory option.

Sadly not! I've never owned one Mercedes, let alone multiple.

I don't think I could be described as a licker of anything - I've never owned the same brand twice. And if you separate cars and bikes, I haven't repeated nationalities either.

[Schaefft]

Incredibly well specced V8 S210 from what seems to be a sensible seller. Naturally it's getting a little crusty but it's looking great in the photos still.
