Excellent work!

[Hertz]

A right result! Looks half decent too.

[Rust Collector]

That's a brilliant result!

[Split_Pin]

That looks decent all right!

[Datsuncog]

Worth the journey, I'd say!

Great going.

[HillmanImp]

Wow, that looks like a right result.

[HillmanImp]

Owned it since it was 14 months old too by the looks of it.

i am in Olton! need moar hands?

 

Thanks for the offer, it all went swimmingly though so I was able to sort it on my own. All the tyres inflated and the brakes were free so it was a case of pushing the Cit out of the garage and onto the road then getting it on the dolly. 
 

Overall condition? It looks great, a quick look over and there doesn’t seem to be any rot- I need to have a proper look though to see what’s what.

Interior looks great, engine isn’t seized and hopefully should run. I’ve seen images of rotten boot floors on 2CVs but this looks good. Overall it’s a massive result! 

[ruffgeezer]

Swine!

 

Well done!

[sdkrc]

Phwooar, nice floors mister!

[barrett]

What an absolute result! It looks basically mint. Get that going, blezz round in it for a bit and then move it on for a sweet profit next year.

[loserone]

Amazing!

[jamescarruthers]

Woooooow! What a result. You must be very pleased!

I want to keep hold of it, it looks like it should be easy to get going. Anybody want a Visa??? 

[Soundwave]

Amazing. That's pretty much the dream right there - being told about an old car in a garage, opening it up and finding a little peach.

[UltraWomble]

Well done

[vulgalour]

And here was I expected some base model hatchback and you've gone and landed yourself a Proper Classic in varicose vein blue.

I’m in Moseley now, it’s parked up on my Dads drive waiting for me to make room at home.

[Noel Tidybeard]

[wuvvum]
