Angrydicky Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 Nice spots! Space Cruisers are really rare now, that's a real survivor. Anyone else think that Aston's registration is quite appropriate...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Sterling Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 Oh yeah - this one too.Heap of dung if you ask me! (And that RS badge looks dubious).I like this, but a little too chavved up for me. Theres an early one of these in a yard in Cradley Heath, I cant get in the right place to take a pic as its too far in the yard and in a corner so very difficult to picture.

Albert Ross Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 The Sierra's a XR4i. Early pre-Cosworth 3 door, unique shell, very strong, 2wd 2.8 injection. Rare and expensive in good nick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Station Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 That Aston Martin is nearly dripping with blood, what a beast and what a number plate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pillock Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 I like this, but a little too chavved up for me. S'only the badges and backbox, 30 minutes with a spanner and some alcohol wipes would sort that! I must admit to quite fancying a Mk4 Cabrio at some point.... I'm crap at hairdressing and I'm hetrosexual but they do appeal. Maybe not the runout model in dusky mauve with matching leather though, that's a bit too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

binhoker668 Posted July 17, 2010 Author Share Posted July 17, 2010 Yup - just had a trawl thru google, reckon it is the TR3 rather than TR2 - extra couple of switches to the right of wheel. This house is just shamesville! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reallyloud Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 This is great! All the 3 Series survivors I've come across are the post 1981 facelift models which asides from the odd bit of trim are undistinguishable from the last ones. Rust killed the early ones, but I assume Volvo sorted out the corrosion issue by then. I also see the link between the car and grover - its the eyes I think.

binhoker668 Posted October 25, 2018 Author Share Posted October 25, 2018 SO. Dropped in at Podders' Scrapyard yesterday on the way home from work.Couple of wee bits and piece3s that might be of note to some?Can anyone remember who owns the stunning white Xantia on here? This one has a stay of execution for a matter of days. Looks like it was bang tidy before it met it's fate. Very clean inside etc. Some other bits and bobs knocking around... And finally, our old Transit from work. Finally met it's end. 39,000 genuine miles on it's (correct) engine. Somebody got a good 'un!! I did try to snag it, but to no avail... Crap update, more soon hopefully.... michael t and Datsuncog 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
