They do the job, but they're  bastard to operate on tyres that are split to fuck.  They drive both wheels, and use a ratchet on each wheel to avoid "diff lock-up". 

It would have been much easier to handle if Pa had gone to the local motorbike shop and asked for a pair of worn-out scrambler front tyres, as they also have a 21" wheel.

bASe misery just like mine, but slightly less old and much less crushed and recycled into washing machines. Reliable if fairly slow and dull transport.

Not sure what the n/a 1.5s were like, but the same lump with the turbo was amazing in a Corsa (and Nova), they didn't half fly.

That ad was a great read until

 

How much are 2 number plates these days ? £40? If think even an AVCAS* are worth more than that depending on the price of mixed scrap. 

 

*all vauxhall corsas are superb

Just about the most hateful, useless, exhausting, dissapointing, frustrating, dismal piece of shit ever to be fitted with a petrol engine.

Crush, melt, recycle. Anything conceivable would be better than an Allen Scythe!

A lift. A snorkel. The bumpers replacing with steel tubes. Knobbley tyres. More dents, and a whinch? And a new rust free chassis. 

Or scrapping

I nearly bought one a couple of times for the allotment. Then I thought, f**k that, if the grass ever gets that long I'll hire a proper petrol strimmer/brush cutter.
