There's a man here who wants to buy an American car that is based in France, it has to be a black Cadillac Cimarron and previously owned by a French actor. Have we got anything like that?

Me thinks perhaps he should have blanked the number plate off the tax disc. I can see the MOT station getting a visit from the friendly chaps at VOSA

its MOT exempt. same as the green goddesses and any other commercial before some point in the 60s

What the!

Maltese '68 Scrote estate previously fitted with a Toyota turbo diesel - which the owner is keeping for "transfer to another vehicle".

 

Incidentally I assume Malta joining the EU now makes it easier to export old motors from there; I seem to recall (in old Your Classic articles) it was a bitch in the old days.

 

Funnily enough I saw about half a dozen Maltese-registered Mk1 and Mk2 Escorts in the large compound next to Purple Parking's Heathrow facility a couple of months back.

And your telling me that it was driven to the mot station in July, I think not, especially as it also states that it's not been seen since the early 90's, Very dodgy.

what MOT station? its just a form you fill in, V112G, you need to present it every time you re-tax. hence them both expiring at the same time.

414k on a hack that age is nothing. I've known 7 figure mileages on the Nissan 2.7 engined ones before. Why this engine isn't transplanted into Land Rovers is a mystery to me.

M&D Engineering offers a conversion kit for the Nissan TD27, though I've never heard of one converted.

LTI only replaced 6 Nissan engines under warranty in all the time they were using that engine.

:roll: That's depressing. All that's gone wrong with it is a flat battery after being left idle for well over a year, and a couple of age-related sundry electrical issues.

Christ allmighty, that Focus is so awful its not even funny.....

 

In what way, shape or form is it a 'WRC replica'. Each to their own when it comes to modifying, but the bloke who created that has to be a complete and total fucking mong,

I have asked a question about this vehicle, if the vendor knows his WRC Foci I hope he has the audacity to tell a little white lie about it... I'll let you know if I get a reply!

 

Edit: I'd asked if they were US spec bumpers - the WRC cars had them as they're longer than the EU ones - and got a reply,

hi m8 ive no idea what spec bumpers are on the car

.

Ok, pretty obscure, but if I wanted to buy a WRC replica Focus, it'd need the correct bumpers... (As well as being a 3-door.)
