The engine leaks fluids.

It's a disgusting colour, in fact several!

It's a half-done, half-assed "restoration" that's been abandoned because he's suddenly discovered how much rot there really is.

Electrical stuff doesn't work.

Interior stuff needs doing.

The chrome needs re-chroming, and doesn't appear to be all present anyway.

You have to collect it pretty-much immediately, and preferably on a wagon as it'll last about 20 yards if you try to drive it home.

 

There you are, job done.

He's also managed to get two photos of the MOT certificate in there, neither showing the advisories. Smooth

These things crack me up. 1200€ for two plus a spare engine. Get your A-frame couriered out to the guys house, then fly out on Ryanair for £10 + £156 fees and charges. use one to A-frame the other back at 15mph. If the engine blows up (seems pretty likely) you've got a spare. Well two actually. WIN.

I'm fairly certain that suckoffallcoppers mong selling the astra was selling an ex-police SD1 not long back, solely for the purposes of going around the oval. I think a few people offered him more than he was asking to restore it, but he refused he wanted to see it smashed/get attention from internet strangers.

I think i'll PM him asking for his number then just give it to every PPI/accident claims/gay chat hotline i can find.

Junkman, you are cruel!  What a gorgeous Buick, I absolutely would.  It's probably a good thing I don't have spare cash...

There's no need to send the A-frame, there's one next to the first van. In fact I'm sure I had a towing dolly similar to the one next to the second van.
