DoctorRetro Posted April 1, 2019 Author Share Posted April 1, 2019 It's dog rough,but goes like a train.Feels like 200k! But MoT'd until Jan 2020, so all good. It probably won't stay long, you know me. It would be £3.50 per ticket. Lacquer Peel, LightBulbFun, michael t and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorRetro Posted April 1, 2019 Author Share Posted April 1, 2019 Just wondering, does this count as a 'Base'?Keep fit windows, no central locking, no sunroof, and worst of all.... no wood inlays in the dash or doors! LightBulbFun 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bulowski Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 Yeah I think that's the base model. Don't think I've ever seen one without bits of tree in it! michael t 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doctormop Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 Well bought and not much to go wrong;I thought my 214i with plastic tree on the dash but not doors and a sunroof was pretty base spec;Obviously I was mistaken, Good luck with the sack cloth and ashes.

BeEP Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 Yes, the 218D was the most basic model. It equates the the 214i (which succeeded the carburettored plain 214). SD = Si (and has bits of wood) SLD = SLi Here's the 218D I owned for a while last year ProgRocker and michael t 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoctorRetro Posted April 2, 2019 Author Share Posted April 2, 2019 Is it for sale yet? How about now? I do have to make a choice, as I was sort of planning on 'crayoning' this one for Retro Rides this summer. But if anyone wants to convince me otherwise, either cross my palm with £250ish or shush.

Stanky Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 https://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Crayoning I should hope you'll want less for it after you've finished crayoning?
