Lovely Cars: Interesting, Classic, Retro, Barge 5-10k

[0a]

I really want a G wagon but I think it's just because I am a old Merc nut. I'd want a 6 cylinder though!

[Fast Bug]

Yeah so I've smashed the thread budget, and I'm not even bothered

Just saving for "posterity"

Big money, but just look at it. Fantastic colours. 79k in 35 years.

This looks great. £7500. Decent history and long MOT.

On coils though.

Not sure why this one is hanging around (also unfortunately on coils):

The paint looks a bit of a mess, as though its been touched up using a different colour.

I've always liked the Alpine.

That is lovely, and a much more interesting choice than the obligatory MG Sherpa Convertible.

Cheap for a G wagon, with sensible plates included.

It'd need to be a LWB with portals to grab my attention really, but not bad for the price.
It's going to be a while longer before a 3 pointed star joins the fleet by the look of things

Oooh. An LSE.

Damn that's tempting.

[CharlesdeGaulle]

This looks quite nice.

Seems quite well priced too.

I've only just agreed to buy another car as well

fk that's cheap! Having just been looking for an S2, that would be closer to GBP 15k over here, if not more. S2s have recently gone nuts and v few on the local market.

I would want to know why the nosecone conspicuously doesn't match the colour of the rest of the car.

Mere details old boy, mere details ...

[CharlesdeGaulle]

Not hugely original, but looks in really decent condition and could be a very useable classic. 9 Grand. I like.

[Lowtimer]

I like those too and have been having the odd impure thought about souping one up a bit. I imagine it would not be too hard to deploy some go-faster MGB bits into one, thus rendering it fitter for modern traffic without ruining the spirit of the thing.
