Also: dibs, plz.

Mine was a Scottish car all it's days and had rot in a couple of really awkward places - there are two triangular recesses just ahead of the rear arches at the inner sills which had rotted from previous shit repairs. That, coupled with every single window regulator being goosed, leaky brake cylinders, temperamental locks and it being a £300 stopgap shitter which various bad body repairs... think I sold it for more than I paid for it.

Mine was 100% mechanically reliable and while not exciting I really liked it to drive, very Japanese to look at inside but felt tight and drove well. Don't think I ever saw less than 40mpg, the 1600 engine's a little honey and really well suited to the Carina E.

Anyone got any real life experience with these? 
 

I really like that for the money. 
 

If it’s as good as most Toyota cars are I think it would be a good daily.  
 

colour is 100% not me buy hey, at a grand you cannot get picky

I have a 2.0 GLi estate that I bought off here last August. So bigger-engined and better spec, but the the basic qualities of space and good, everyday useability will be shared with that one on eBay. I really like mine.

I had no issue getting a replacement radiator and various service parts.

How did he get out of it? 

Ninja's out the boot or (what we used to do) park outside then roll the car in. Pull it back out next morning - used to have to do that in one house as you could not get out of either of my wfe's cars (924 or an Escort - so not mahoosive things)

[edit] the ad shows it's on skates - sneaky

You'd think with it being on skates they'd drag it outside for the photographs, but that's a bloody fantastic car. Wonder what's happened with the door card, almost looks burnt, possibly a dropped fag end or someone's been careless with a welder?

To quote myself, I've just realised this is a Mulsanne 'S' which means...

The Mulsanne S was introduced in 1987. Although this model lacked its turbocharger, many of its other details were similar to the Turbo R, including that car's alloy wheels and interior, and the suspension was firmed up for a more sporting ride. The rectangular headlamps from the 1980s gave way to quad round units for 1989, and the model was produced until 1992.

It also has a bit more power and less than 1000 were made.

Please someone buy that before we see it appear on this thread yet again.

Alright Lord Snooty, keep your hair on. 

Maybe this Buzby Yellow one will keep you happy? £850 so far and it's in Swansea, which I hear is lovely*.

Selling my Ford Capri 1.3L mk3 1980. Its Highland Green with 2.8i interior. 
2.8 front struts coiled over with roller top mounts. 
Gas rear adjustable shocks.
 2.8 front brakes with groved discs. Have a 2ltr pinto 205 block all running. Little bit of oil burning tho. 

Moted and tax exempt. Lots of spares that come with it. It runs drives and stops so can be driven away and used. As can see with the photos it not rot free but soiled in the right places. 

Still £5,500...
