I just had to know, so I've sent the vendor of the until car/mycar a request for more information.

I'm not holding out much hope for a coherent response though.

Tasty Marina van for about £750. Nice dog.

I reckon these XE Falcons are right lookers, a follow-up to the XD, which looked just like an early Mk2 Granada. Nice touch of covering up registration plate and then entering it in the listing!

Buy it and relish the dumbed down displays. No 'tricky to understand' symbols here, just little lights with words on them.

singular giffer-owner Pulsar SSS which Ratdat should add to his burgeoning Nissan Sunny Derivatives collection. I won't apologise for 3 photos:

This has been on offer for ages and has come down in price to £1250-ish, still a little salty but where else will you find an MMC Sigma turbo diesel with louvres?

Do the Japanese still muck about with seemingly needless but undeniably desirable details on JDM versions of models? For no obvious reason, here's a 2 litre V6 Camry with pillarless doors and a plush red interior for about £1000. I wish I had a need for this.

How much is the postage for this Antipodean chod?

 

I've no idea but would estimate not much change from £1500 but that's an entirely fabricated result. Best ask Nigel Bickle, as he'll be much more informed on this subject, though don't think he's bought anything from NZ. yet.

Should I ever run into some loot again in my life, this is what I am going to buy when I retire:

$%28KGrHqRHJE8FJF0e,DYeBSWthV%2819Q~~60_

 

This is how the whole shit started, and this is how it will end for me.

No worries, I'll still have the P6, too.

I've always jokingly said that if I ever win the millions I'll buy something like this, restore it sympathetically then daily it!

I'm not saying this jokingly. I will do it as soon as I can afford it and it clearly doesn't take millions.

This is the essence of motoring, not a shitload of TLAs and parking sensors.

Wow. Look at this FAMOUS Capri:

 

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FORD-CAPRI-2-0-S-2-LITRE-S-CLASSIC-FAMOUS-CAR-/251451236718

Do you recognise it?

 

A few clues:

 

It wasn't in Minder.

 

Makepiece did not drive it.

 

George Best probably never boffed Anne Diamond over the bonnet of it.

 

You will be kicking yourself when you find out.

 

THIS IS THE CAR THAT WILL BE FEATURED IN THE NEW SERIES OF ANT AND DEC

 

WOWSERS! With that kind of history it should really only be sold onto a museum for future generations to enjoy.

Apart from all the others, why do we never see Inspector Morse's XJ6, Bergerac's Triumph Vitesse, Cowley's Scorpio, etc.

 

Here is another one off:

Admittedly they are different but definately not unique in their idea or excecution. At least this one is a Regal Reliant.

Very tempted to do a Vulgalour-style cleaning mission on this one. Sadly it's not worth the £££ he's asking for it. SWMBO likes it, strangely.

Mr Trebus will be raging at these interlopers!

Just to go for it would require a £5,100 bid, with no guarantee of this being the winning one in the end.

However, currently, I'd struggle to cough up £51.00

junkflan - what did caravan bloke say (git :D )

 

No reply as of yet. He might assume I'm a Nigerian scammer.

However, local agents have been deployed now.

My dad's 1.6 Bluebird managed an indicated ton on several occasions, including once when chasing an Austin Ambassador that had tooted at him while he was trying to park. He told me not to mention that incident to my mother...

 

Crikey, I can only assume mine was broken then.
