Joey spud Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 Ah yes I was smitten when I saw this on Mathewson's site recently,as Derek would say "find another one". They didn't have much else of interest for me last month although a Morris 8 series E that needed as Dave put it "oily ragging" did have me putting an unsuccessful bid in. egg and CGSB 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conan Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 I love these. It is one of my dream car. I wish I'd bought a nice saloon version when the price hasn't risen so much. They're so dorky it turns right back into cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grizz Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 This is pure porn. I have liked them for as long as I have known them, I like wagons. And looking at the price, even after taxes, buyers premiums etc…. Is half of what I expected them to be. @Rocket88 I have to confess that I am super envious. this look I also love, how the Japanese roll them.

yes oui si Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 Absolutely 100% yes! Wanted one of these since I was a teenager. Lovely thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BorniteIdentity Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 I saw that on my Facebook feed and thought the price was very fair. This sort of thing can easily be 5 figures. Well bought. @Spottedlaurelwill like it I’m sure! grizz and Spottedlaurel 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
