that's an ex Forum car.  Can't remember who had it but I know there were at least 3 and it ended up with Retroshite 

@Six-cylinder?

You could flog that to a member of the MMOC for a minimum of £50 I reckon?

There's quite a few sets on eBay that aren't that expensive, but this one does look very complete with its plastic bits (probably full of chemicals!)

It really is, isn't it? That's £1000 you'd never* regret spending. What a lovely thing. Can imagine many happy hours dodging ULEZ zones with the A/C on, after a regas m9 obvs.

Idle fantasies about getting the train to Norwich and picking that baby up.

Didn't you fit a Radiomobile stereo in one of those once, in the Autoleads carpark - while an obese man sat in the driver's seat smoking fags?

Hello Golden Crystal  Balls.

Is that a Robinson Golly on the collar?

You could well be right Kev. It was definitely a Daewoo of some description. And some relation/friend of Brenda, who definitely sexually assaulted me.

I really rate my 61 plate base model example. £20 per year road tax and 55mpg everywhere with me driving it like a cunt. It rides and handles like a slightly bigger Clio, too.

Mine is a relative spring chicken having only done 143k miles.

I did think that the 200k+ example found by @MrGTI6 looked in remarkably good condition. I did think Renault UK press office should buy it and do a press release about it.

Megane definitely future shite for me, eco dizzle and slightly unfashionable. I bet they're gr9.

Pretty sure that's @Angrydicky's car.

Largely unoxidised Vauxhall Royale 2.8. I've had two of these before and even 10 years ago the spares situation was dire, but look at that interior! ❤️
RED VELOUR FTW!

FORD COUGAR 2 BARN FIND 2001 MK2 SPARES OR REPAIRS CAPRI 2.8 MONDEO ONLY 6 LEFT | eBay

'ONLY 440 MK 2 COUGARS WERE SOLD IN THE UK, SO THIS PUTS THIS CAR IN THE SAME BRACKET AS THE CAPRI 2.8 BROOKLANDS'

That's fantastic news. My 'Toys R Us' purple coloured kazoo (of only 143) must be in the same bracket as a fucking Stradivarius then, M8?

There's ridiculous ebay prices, massively overpriced ebay prices and then this; prices so inflated they're funny:

Morris Minor 1275 2 door - Picture 1 of 4

Pretty fucked Minor, very honest advert.

Shame there are no photos of the rusted areas. The car had a change in log book in April 2024 so why did he not go back ?

What there is in the MOT history is a wee bit suss too. There is a huge jump in mileage in one year. I appreciate that older cars do not require a test.
