Must be quite rare to see a red Cinquecento that hasn't had its doors nicked.

Low mileage Mondeo. Bonus points for retro windscreen stickers and gaffa-taped rear bumper.

LOL at the taped-up bumper, but still nice low mileage and those leather seats look super-comfy.

This seems like a funky little thing for just over £2k. New paint, low miles and a very 80s look. http://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C773271



I love those so much. Convert it to a manual mated to a fruity VTEC and it'd be even better.
I had a manual one of these as a 17 year old in Sixth Form, in silver. As far as I can recall, it was still on carbs, but was a 12 valve engine. Mine had electric pack, windows and mirrors, but the real show stopper was the pop up lights.

Another tiny-miled Fiat.


I'd also like to thank the ubiquity of parking sensors on cars nowadays.

A good 205 GTI for a tenth of the price of the best ones.

I've got a mate who's got a scruffy 1991 1.6 206 GTi that he's owned since 1992. He's thinking about selling it so I'm hoping he'll let me have first refusal.

An interesting one

Not an original but a pretty decent re-creation of an "Alfa Romeo Alfasud Sprint 6C"

So a 1 owner car - he must realise its potential value now base rates are 0.25%. He may as we'll keep it give it TLC enjoy it and it will only go one way now. Might take a while to get into anything interesting £ wise but it's a zero cost car

I know this is probably going to offend some purists but I love that and I think it works make an awesome retro track car, put some buckets in, small cage, more modern but still light engine and some work on the shocks and brakes smile

I, too, have a scruffy 1991 1.6 205 GTI that I've owned since the mid-nineties (apart from a couple of years at the turn of the century when it was owned by a friend).

After a lie-up of several years the car was put back on the road last year and is in fairly regular use (it took me and Ms Lime around Brittany last summer). It's going for paint over winter, which should hopefully see it right for another ten years. I'm unlikely to sell the car (it's not worth much more than a grand or so at the moment, despite the wild prices found on Ebay etc.) and, if indeed it is a 'classic', it won't ever be pampered and kept under wraps. It's a nippy little hatchback - that's what it was built for and that's what it does.

There's a link to it somewhere on here. I really should get around to doing a Readers' Cars on it.

He likes the car, but he's by no means a petrol head. I don't think he's ever opened the bonnet. He's always had it serviced on schedule, so it's well maintained, but he's got neither the time, space, skills or inclination to restore it himself.

Top money at £5000.
Overpriced I think.
