I wonder how long until that Mazda's hit with a stick and rollin on banded wheels... (Not aimed at you Panda, Just in general)

If you do buy it, please get rid of those numberplates. They look fucking stupid.

I wouldn't. His inability to spell or use a comma correctly makes me feel physically sick.

I'm surprised you ever dare look at ebay then, i'd imagine you will be chundering all over your computer within about a minute of going on there!

1982 Citroen Dyane Pick Up

 

I'm sure I'm meant to dislike this, But i don't, In fact i quite like it, Doe's that make me a bit odd?.

 

Interesting rear window arrangement as well.

1983 Citroen CX Familiale Series 1

 

Look at this old bag of nails for £300

 

Bodywork........well have a good look at the photos, the truth is I don't know how bad it is

Not great i would say.

1988 Ford Escort Combi Van

 

Why are all the combi's modified by bellends...

 

RS TURBO COSWORTH

Oh right, so it's going be as quick as it looks then.

 

1.3 on logbook but does have a 1.4 cvh engine

That's a no then, And it's illegally insuranced then as well.

[pogweasel]

I would be happy if that dyane ute came to live at my house. What's the other flatbed thing pictured with it in pic #12??Datsun? Simca? Autobianchi?? I just don't know.

[seth]

What's the other flatbed thing pictured with it in pic #12??

Very tasty! That's what it is.Simca I reckon.

[wuvvum]

My initial thought was Reliant Rebel, but I don't see a propshaft.

[trigger]

I've just asked him!, He might have more photo's and it does look bloody good!, I'm thinking Simca as well though.

[Talbotman]

Its definately a reliant rebel - my guess is that its been converted to Mini/metro fwd running gear you can just about see the side exit exhaust coming out from beneath the rear cab .

That's actually a really cool BL "what if". Nice wheels. Astralis I think. I can't see it going for a grand though?

[trigger]

Got an email from that pick up owner, It is a Rebel!, He wasn't to impressed that we had be discussing it on autoshite though!

 

1975 Renault 15 TS

 

This is nice, Has only done 20000 miles as well

[FredTransit]

BTW the tin snail pick up is still down as a 3 door hatchback, so might be a bit problematic at MOT time. Do they have a separate chassis? If not this would be favourite for the DVLA to come knocking about the much talked about BIVA (which I am not too impressed with). Normally I would say MOT and drive it, but the pick up conversion is soooo obvious it only takes a glance from across the road to see it's been radically altered.

 

Seen this in CCW?

 

[dollywobbler]

No problems Fred. Dyanes have a separate chassis, so you can do what you like with the body. Does need the V5 updating though really.

[M'coli]

They're usually a 5 door hatchback, this has 3 doors and a ute bed, so I think it shouldn't be a problem.

[trigger]

I emailed the seller asking a bit more about the pick up with a link to this thread, He's his reply.

Don't worry Mike I was only kidding about being offended...you can't drive cars like this without having a sense of humour.I've been following the forum discussions so here's some info;-The Dyane's V5 was returned to DVLA to change it from a 5-door to 3. I called it a 'utility' but they were happy to still call it a hatchback.Both cars have completely standard chassis and running gear so yes, you can pretty much do what you want with the bodies if the MoT man doesn't deem it dangerous.The Rebel does have a propshaft and rear drive, it's just in shadow.It's running an 850 kitten engine which makes it pretty quick but I've got a 1300 Corolla engine and box in the garage which should squeeze in nicely...And yes, I think it looks pretty shit-hot myself!I'll sort out some more pics soon.

So that's cleared that then!, The Rebel still looks fun though!

[FredTransit]

No problems Fred. Dyanes have a separate chassis, so you can do what you like with the body. Does need the V5 updating though really.

That's OK then! I am surprised the DVLA were not too bothered about changing the body style though, I thought that was a hanging offence these days, without a letter from yer mum.....

[warren t claim]

Excuse my ignorance but what is BIVA?
