Probably not all that difficult, to be honest. Don't think Serbia's in the EU so that may be a stumbling block? Poland's full of rammle as well it appears - who could overlook this http://allegro.pl/polonez-fso-1-5-1980-rok-i1256370314.html for only £620?

 

Hereharehere - I had a kermit green '76 Wartburg 353 Tourist. It spectacularly failed to get me back from the Czech Republic and was single handedly capable of being the worst car I've ever owned. It's now been stolen, and I'm looking for another one... definate 24 carat gold shite!

This advert's been up for ages so it may be a repost.

The first owner had the van from 1989 to 2006 and appears to have been a very particular man. There are several letters written by him to the service dealer in which he reviews the work they’ve done, critiques it, questions it, criticizes it and even praises it occasionally. In one he questions the charge for checking and topping up his power steering fluid as the amount of dust on the cap would indicate that it hadn’t been touched! The correspondence itself is a good read and paints a detailed picture of how ‘particular’ this guy was. My favourite line in one of the letters is ‘After some persistence on my part, Brian Monroe* (I’ve sussed that he must have been the dealership owner) appeared and he also admitted he knew nothing of the matter….More than 5 weeks have now passed, and on contacting Brian today I understand that an opportunity……I also understand that Brian will be indisposed for an undefined period, staring now.’

 

The owner, having been unsatisfied with the service he was receiving starting hiring a mechanic from the dealership for the day to come to his property and service his van under his watchful eye. Included in the history are detailed service schedules, check lists, advisory notes and reminders made by the mechanic and the owner.

Serbia's not in the EU yet, but I've no useful idea what that implies for the ease of shite-exportation. Probably just a simple matter of handing grubby wads of hard currency to some dead-eyed border guard with an AK47, then driving it back home and being prosecuted for war crimes.

 

In the meantime, check these boys out:

Does this bloke have any idea what he's sitting on here? Evidently not, judging by those wheel trims and the €700 price tag.

Fair few R18s on offer. €650 for this one.

Escort is 390miles from the girlfriend's, roadtrip my dear? :lol:

 

Who are ZMServices on Ebay as they look to be importing them as well?

 

Missus says that the 700 Euros isn't a fixed price either... :shock:

 

Engine is ok and also transmission, it was garaged

and it has complete summer and winter tires, just serviced.

1985 Renault Espace

 

A bit of history I read about. Espace was designed by Matra and Talbot designer, and used parts from Simca cars, including the Talbot Alpine grille. It was intended as a follow up to the Matra Rancho.

Fuggin wars, that would have been a fearsome track weapon alright - I reckon it would have pissed a 24-sec 1/4. Shame you're giving up on it, it really looks seriously mean as well. Ah well, I'm looking forward to your next project. What is it, a fuggin autocross LDV Pilot? :roll: COCKHOUSE

Hmm, VOSA definitley wont be ordering that off the road at the first possible opportunity! Actually they will.

 

Mini Pickup Body (only) this was attached to a Daihatsu Sportrak 4x4 Chassis with the intention of making a "one off" jeep.....

 

Plans have changed so this bodyshell has been removed for someone to restore it to an ORIGINAL Mini 95 Pickup?

 

Restore to original eh?

this looks intriguing, its probably as rusty as a fishermans bucket like but the crummy pics give it an air of MYSTIQUE.

I freaking love avengers, particularly when they have a towbar and the reg plate above the bumper, it just seems to be a perfect 70's council estate mod. Wear a woolly hat and donkey jacket and stand all day outside your local coal mine burning a few bits of tat in a brazier for the full effect.
