Ambassadour, wiz zeez posts you a really spoiling us

Engine out of an XR2, dodgy bonnet bulge and a suspect history, but I spoke to someone who saw it the other day and he says it's really good for lack of rust

[trigger]

OMG indeed! everything about that says WINNA!

[seth]

But now i'm a pensioner

 

Would never had guessed after seeing those plastic (Rover 200?) wheel trims

[Mr H Sceptre]

but only insured 'to the value of £3.00'

 

[garethj]

Apparently the story with that car is that the engine developed a problem so the previous owner did the decent thing and reported it stolen. The insurance company paid out, so after a while it made its way to a scrapyard, without any numberplates.

 

At the same time, there was an XR2 with crashed back end, so the engine and box from the Fiesta was put into the Rancho. It was canted forwards a lot, and the front bar where the bonnet hinges had to be cut away and something else fabricated. It's also got a Fiesta dash pod badly put in which fails to blend with the Rancho dash.

 

And now it's on ebay. If it wasn't butchered, I'd be splurging my cash on it right now, but I don't think being in the hands of someone who's stuck these together is a smart move

Remarkable, that marina van ended up selling for £4200!

 

I wonder if the sale will complete?

 

Well, surprising to see a Marina going for good money, shite has moved on!

 

Bloody hell. Marina 'Scene Tax'. It's a disgrace

Old commercials do seem to fetch silly money , lets face it they are designed to last 5 years max , get overloaded , get hammered and get rusty , good survivors are rare now , I know of an Imp Van that went for £9.000 plus import duty from Australia so not cheap .

An investment possibly if its really good

[Mr Lobster]

On that basis, if anyone wants to offer me £10k for my R4....

[Rusty Pelican]

Id Hang on to it ,

MK1 / 2 and maybe even MK3 escort vans are rare now , Mini vans , Anglia vans /Thames are all getting REALLY sought after. Same goes for pickups

Currently on €1300 with a day to go. Looks rather amusing for the money.

 

 

 

 

Goldie strikes again!!!!!

I'm too lazy to post a link but there is a lovely restored pageant blue 1980 Austin Princess 2200 HLS on eBay @ the mo.

[Richard]

I'd tip my load on her.

Ooh, I can just imagine Goldie cranking that long slender handle

That advert above reminds me of TheDoctor's auctions. Not noticed any of this stuff for a while?

Anyone know where 'Tekton Motor Corporation' comes from? There's a band called that, but they're quite obscure - I'd be surprised if that's where they've gotten it from.

I like this on RetroRides. How bad could it be?

 

 

 

Or this much more sensible 740. Not a turbo unfortunately.

 

Looks like he got rid of the problem of sagging headliner

Why would anyone say, "Hey, I'd love a Nissan 200 SX but it's a bit fugly, I know, I'll buy a Mitsuoka Le Seyde instead, it's much better looking".?

 

Looks like they have copied the Tiffany Classic Coupe, built in the states based on a Mercury Cougar in the mid eighties..

This super-late GSA X3 looks all right for €410.

A cheery cherry Cherry 100A F-II, curiously billed as an '84. Those wheels nearly suit it. 68k km, €410.

This is the only decent picture of a rather excellent 61k km 1970 Moskvich estate. €461.

 

http://www.cars.bg/u130813

 

€510 doesn't seem much to ask for a diesel-powered tribute to the majesty of the Balkans.

 

 

http://www.cars.bg/u206135

 

Oooof! All this plus a spare engine and box for €510. Check out his bespoke under-dash accessories!

This claims to have done 5,000km on what appears to have been a brand new engine. €570.

I think these were built under licence in Bulgaria. €610.

Look at this one-owner lovely! Pick of the extensive Lada crop. €670.

I'm not sure what's best about this: colour or seats? YOU decide. €770.

Recently failed mot on exhaust emissions although the exhaust is fairly new so don't understand that.

 

Don't know whether to or .

Even a complete crap-head-when-it-comes-to-vehicle-mechanics like me can LOL at that statement
