My old boss on undergrad student placement (I was 20 or so, he was 23ish) had a GT6. Great spanner-y things to tinker with. Fortunately at that age it was comparatively easy to crawl in and out of, not sure about nowadays!

Well engine access is certainly good

IIRC they also sounds quite cool too

If I were remotely technical I would love that.

at that price you could learn how to be technical... I suspect a hammer, flate-head screw-driver and adjustable spanner would see you good for most of the jobs! Lovely

Indeed, a nice little project for the home tinkerer

I'm utterly clueless sadly. Maybe I'll buy a few books and get it anyway.

My word. 6 cylinders, great colours, leather, air con, ambers, estate. Delightful.

That GT6 reminds me of this:

Very nice, not seen that thread before.

A Herald Vitesse is still on my 'list'.

Seriously though, six grand for an XR2?

Is that how much it was?

Sheesh, must have missed that.

There's an XR4x4i at a garage near me up for £9990.

I might have a rant about that next

Since last autumn I've had 3 blokes leave their phone number (no, not like that!) wanting to buy my XR4x4i. I really dunno what to do for the best, it does need work doing and I need something more modern to drive, but it seems to be appreciating at a % rate faster than a Chelsea mews apartment!

To be fair, 1 chap did ask "if it was a Cosseh" so he doesn't really count.

Nine grand for an XR2!
I want that to be written on my gravestone.

Good going!

But yeah, not the bloke who thought it was a 'Cosseh'.

"Grey, vgc, red leather interior. 6 former owners,FSH.
123k miles. Mot: December 2015.
This car is almost a "modern classic" and its value will start going up very soon like it's happening with all Porsche 924-944-928-964...not to mention the crazy market of the various 911s. The Boxster is at the bottom of its depreciation curve, buying a cheap Boxster now will result in a profit for the buyer as well as providing an exciting and still modern transport. "

Can't help but notice the Mystery Machine parked behind that car, does it come with free Scooby snacks?

You squeeze it to pump up the inflatable lumbar support. Press the button on the end to let the air out and deflate it.

Thanks. I thought it might be, but didn't realise it was a flexible hand pump type deal.


I'm surely alone, but I think this with the spoiler in the bin and in a fantastically deep green would be fking incredible.
