This is really hardly worth more than scrap value without mot. God knows how long it's parked on grass, it would most likely need £££ in welding even if it wasn't.

I remember buying them for £300 with MOT. They were fun times

 

My X300 XJ6 has never been welded and won't need it soon. It's just not rusty

Or you could visit this absolute thundering weapon of a dealer asking £4k for a V6:

Pretty sure it's been there for a good nine months so far.

Overpriced but I really love their styling and the V6 is super rare. Needs to be a manual though and you might as well get a Xedos 6.

Meanwhile, here's a cheap LS460 for under 3 grand, which sounds like a steal despite the high tax bracket.

So do I! I remember Car magazine running a feature about all cars looking the same in 1990, but it's one of my favourite styling eras.

'This is particularly true of the nose treatment: the ‘face’ of a car. All three makers – as well as number of continental manufacturers – have settled on the droop nose/narrow horizontal grille/shallow tapered headlamps treatment for every model in their range. It’s plainly a shape people like.'

Correctly engined Transit in Hereford. You could have a nice day out cheese rolling, then come back up the A49 just listening to that engine note as you thrash it between the gears.

I am seriously getting a bit  interested in this low mileage beastie coming up in Kings Lynn on 27/28th

I do have to convince my good lady that it is as robust and easily looked after as the Ovlov 940 but I think the leather instead of velour may sway her

This went through the auction today at about 3.30pm. Amazeballs 21st century tech allowed us to register for bidding from a layby 50 miles from home.
Prior to it getting driven through internet bids were only at £1200 - happy days. Soon as the bidding opened the guy announced that he had commision bids so opening price was actually £3,500 - immediately too rich for us.
Sold at £3,800 plus commision which (I reckon) was pretty good on the day.

(The auctioneers blah-de-blah also stated that this was an ex-demo vehicle so, in essence, only single owner since 1999 - cool)

Holey moley just noticed the price! It must be the sum total for all those trinkets. : )

Starting bid: £80,000.00

Edit : The staring price is now £8k not £80K.
