That Astra looks rather nice and isn't too far away but the seller feedback is poor and it would appear to be a breaker of some sort.

[Cavcraft]

Was this Cav a white one on a G plate in Ipswich?, Yep that was me, It's still for sale i believe... What do you mean by interesting emails?, is the owner a bit of a sap?

 

 

No, no, quite the reverse seemed a decent fella. It's done some miles mind, 200K I think, but that's more reason to save it really.

The Astra "back seats never used" imbecile got rather upset that I challenged his ridiculous assertion, but admitted;

That Hunter is magic, what engine will that be, some sort of 1500cc BMC* affair or something? He also seems to have an old 244(?) in his shed.

 

 

 

*Yes, I do know Rootes are a different company.

 

Back in the eighties diesel converted Hunters were pretty common in spudland, probably one of the few cars solid enough to not be shaken to bits. I don't know which engine that one has, only ever saw the old B series lookalike lumps from J type vans, they were an easy conversion only needing a length of flat iron, I had a pink one for a short while, painfully slow thing.

[Ross_K]

Yep, and it's unusual to see one without a towbar as they would have been one of the more popular farmer-mobiles when I was a kid.

 

Weren't they hideously underpowered? Something like 40bhp rings a bell?

[jonathan_dyane]

That Hunter has me well confused, I've never seen a B series BMC diesel engine fitted in an inclined manner....

Speaking of obscure Irish Hunters, here's a Chrysler Hunter:

Interesting sounding TR7, no pics though .... currently road legal, but needs some work. £500

 

Triumph TR7 FHC Black l979 fitted with 2L Ford EFI Engine. Full length sunroof. Taxed until November 2012, MOT expires end of July 2012. 93,563 miles. Boot underneath and sill area will need welding for next MOT. Some parts of paintwork are dull and need a good T-cut. Winding window mechanisms need attention, they do open but are rather stiff. Left-hand pop up light stays down. Four good tyres. Car goes well but bodywork lets it down

It's about where they are though. Mine sold for £240 - albeit with twice the mileage. Rear wiper worked though!

 

Nice to see a pre-facelift one. The rear wiper would have packed up because someone had the bright idea of using the tailgate struts as the earth. Which rarely worked even when they were new.

[TagoraSX]

Buy this and be knee deep in clunge.

AVOID.

 

Well all of them have stiff window winders and the handles break off but the boot welding issue is a right effer.

hopefully go to an enthusiast, who will restore this museum piece to it's former glory

 

As it is priced to sell the Alloys are not included in the sale

 

At least it's only £150

[Ross_K]

Heap o'shite.

 

Don't be the guy who bought a plastic car to send it over the bridge...

 

TBH the alloys are the only part of that car worth anything, and they're not for sale.
