Not sure if this counts as to the rules of posting... But I really enjoyed reading this article in the DM (How true it all is questionable)



Just sold at auction in this condition £62k

EDITED

If opinions are no then I will delete.

Poor old Cortina - SLL100W, a 1.6GL with what looks to be the S Pack spoiler, driving lamps etc. Rarer than the E Type!

Can't help feeling there won't be much of that E-Type left by the time it is restored!

The MG TF in the background is on the DVLA register but no recent info - was it also sold at the auction?

It's got all the important things for a restoration.....a VIN number, engine number and registration plate!

In a fairly dismal part of Reading earlier.






The number plate boasted a dealer in Sloane Square.

The tiny brown wheels don't suit it.


That is a very sorry sight.

Sounds like you'd lost the plot.

Sounds like a grave situation.

Sounds like a dead end.

A couple or six pints at the College Arms, charm the laydeez in the "After Dark" followed by a large with chilly from Abra-Kebabra. Now that's a night out in Reading for you...
