Sold AX of significant autoshitical interest

[NorthernMonkey]

The V5 turned up this morning so as alluded to elsewhere on the forum, it’s roffle time, guys and gals.

 

I was the lucky* winner of this fine steed a short while back and having enjoyed its Gallic charm (and lowered the average local house prices by several percent due to the unique* paint job), it’s time to move it on to someone more deserving.

 

Not a lot to say about it that hasn’t been said elsewhere tbh...it looks as rough as a badgers arse from anything closer than about 25 foot due to impressive amounts of lacquer peel but it drives well...very well indeed.

 

Mileage is in the region of 63k miles, a figure unlikely to increase daily as the speedo doesn’t work.

 

I’ve had it up on the ramp at work and it’s remarkably clean and original underneath...it needs a nearside front CV boot which I’ll attend to this week and the radio reception is pants due to a broken aerial plug behind the dash...once again, that’ll be sorted so the next lucky winner can enjoy bangin’ choons.

 

Other than that, it’s as it arrived...there are four nearly new tyres, half a tank of unleaded and an A-frame in the boot so it can be attached to your luxury 1980s damp transit based motor home for cross country capers.

 

 

 

Currently located in Fence, BB12, the price of tickets for this fine automobile is a ridiculously low £6 each or a once in a lifetime, never to be repeated, multi-buy offer of two for a tenner.

 

Any questions, suggestions or offers of ridiculous swaps for non-runners etc, fire away!

2 lucky dips please. I've bought so many tickets for this thing every time it's been auctioned, hopefully I'll win it one day

[Fat_Pirate]

Deux billet, merci.

 

I had to Google the correct spelling of 'deux' due to being Norfolk educated.

[DoctorRetro]

Yep, 2 for me.

List updated.

 

2 complementaries for Snagglepuss as it’s his fault I was landed with.....err, was lucky enough to win it in the first place.

 

Also, a couple for ohdearme in recognition of collectioneering over and above the call of duty. It’d look nice on the back of his Sharan.

[GrumpiusMaximus]

Ah! The ex-Robinmasters forum bike AX. I like the door pockets that are shaped almost precisely to hold a bottle of wine.

 

No tickets for me but this is a nice car.

[bramz7]

It's now two years since I bought it off eBay for £185(!), It was listed as towing equipment!

 

Brill little car that my other half still hates me for selling. I drove it to from Reading to Colchester and back and it was fine. A little bit slight for modern traffic but who cares.

 

That velour interior is ace.

[bangernomics]

47 and a random please

[Fabergé Greggs]

2 plz

[NorthernMonkey]

2 plz

Number 2 or two randoms?

I’ve reserved you number two but if you want another random, let me know.

[castros_bro]

What's yer buy it noo price?

[busmansholiday]

Fuck it, 1 and 59 please. You do realise if I win it it will cost me another 500 drinking vouchers to fit a tow bar to the motorhome don't you ?...

[NorthernMonkey]

Fuck it, 1 and 59 please. You do realise if I win it it will cost me another 500 drinking vouchers to fit a tow bar to the motorhome don't you ?...

But just think what a winner you’d be with this tied to your rear end.

[NorthernMonkey]

What's yer buy it noo price?

Good question. It’s not taking much space up whilst the roffle fills up but I suppose doing the maths, £275 would take it.

[Saabnut]

As I now have 3 smoll cars, one of which is a very tidy AX, I have no need, use or wantage for this.

 

 

One of the above is a lie.

 

 

2 randoms please.

[The Moog]

Erm.... Thanks.... I think

 

 

I am apparently n+1 cars so I am sure one more won't make a difference

 

 

£275 is bargains

[aldo135]

13 and 30 please!

[NorthernMonkey]

All updated...

 

Over a third sold already in a little over 4 hours so at this rate, we could be on for a midweek draw, folks.

 

Just think how much better* your life could be waking up to this vision of maroon beauty as you throw back your bedroom curtains each morning.

 

Single? Simply stick this on your POF profile and I can guarantee* you’ll be knee deep in potential suitors by the weekend. In fact, the first thing Claire said to me when she saw it was, and I quote, ‘if you bring that home, you can go and get f***ed’.

[purplebargeken]

I'm pretty sure I may have mentioned that I used to own a blue AX............

[Fabergé Greggs]

Number 2 or two randoms?

I’ve reserved you number two but if you want another random, let me know.

 

Oh soz, it was two randoms. Happy with number 2 and another random!

[spartacus]

6 and 27 please.

[Jerzy Woking]

It's now two years since I bought it off eBay for £185(!), It was listed as towing equipment!

That velour interior is ace.

 

 

And I drove it from Reading to (near enough) Colchester. Used it a few times for my commute down the M11 and A13 during  bad weather, and survived. Comfy car with a fantastic heater. 

 

No need for such a heater in this bit of Spain, so I'm out. GLWTR. 

[The Moog]

I'm pretty sure I may have mentioned that I used to own a blue AX............

Never mentioned it mate

The V5 turned up this morning so as alluded to elsewhere on the forum, it’s roffle time, guys and gals.

 

I was the lucky* winner of this fine steed a short while back and having enjoyed its Gallic charm (and lowered the average local house prices by several percent due to the unique* paint job), it’s time to move it on to someone more deserving.

 

Not a lot to say about it that hasn’t been said elsewhere tbh...it looks as rough as a badgers arse from anything closer than about 25 foot due to impressive amounts of lacquer peel but it drives well...very well indeed.

 

Mileage is in the region of 63k miles, a figure unlikely to increase daily as the speedo doesn’t work.

 

I’ve had it up on the ramp at work and it’s remarkably clean and original underneath...it needs a nearside front CV boot which I’ll attend to this week and the radio reception is pants due to a broken aerial plug behind the dash...once again, that’ll be sorted so the next lucky winner can enjoy bangin’ choons.

 

Other than that, it’s as it arrived...there are four nearly new tyres, half a tank of unleaded and an A-frame in the boot so it can be attached to your luxury 1980s damp transit based motor home for cross country capers.

Currently located in Fence, BB12, the price of tickets for this fine automobile is a ridiculously low £6 each or a once in a lifetime, never to be repeated, multi-buy offer of two for a tenner.

 

Any questions, suggestions or offers of ridiculous swaps for non-runners etc, fire away!

 

Ridiculous swap offer? Rover with nearly a quarter of a million miles?

[Alanism]

Number 12 and 1 random please.

[UltraWomble]

Numero 33 and three randomz please.

[Ohdearme]

I will take a random, although it divided the household in my few days of ownership.

 

Child one referred to it as a joke, the other one (3 year old wanted to drive the ‘new racing car’.

[NorthernMonkey]

All allocated and past the halfway stage
