TradeMe car thread
Discussion
I thought I'd start a thread for TradeMe cars that we could keep adding to as interesting stuff comes up. Here's one from today that appeared elsewhere a few weeks back but with less photo's.

When I was searching for a plate for the Saker I tried this one www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/Car-parts-accessories/Personalised-Plates/auction-77035878.htm on the Plates.co site but was pretty sure it wouldn't be available and it wasn't nor any variations. Who'd spend that much coin on a plate. I only just spend $400 for mine 
Cheap lotus for someone

That one has been on TM for possibly over a year. There was another for sale down South about 6 months ago with Stack dash, fire eater system, race engine and spare original engine for around the same price. They're quick but I think they're blimmen ugly. Personal taste obviously. I'd like one with a shell over it.
I've always wanted a 550 Spyder and this ones nice. It's been for sale for some time. Started at $65K www.trademe.co.nz/Browse/Listing.aspx?id=53325943
Hehe...thanks Graham.
No more toys for a while. We are in the process of building another Cafe and our Freezer just died the other week so things are a bit tight this Christmas.
The 550 is mostly a "no-top" although some come with a "raincoat" top. I'll own one "one day".
I have a bit of a dream to open a MotorMania type cafe with all types of automobile paraphanalia, a fun area for kids with rides etc, a go kart track, and some display vehicles etc(the 550 fit's into this bracket). A lot more to it but what I call a "destination Cafe". I've been collecting up some stuff already. Have boxes of old video's, DVD's etc, coin op rideon. Just waiting for the right spot and the right time. We are looking at opening a factory in the future and I may even tie it into that if I think it will work logistically. Our existing Cafe is frequented by car buffs...

I always preferred the 904 GTS to the 550 - only ever seen one replica on the net though, it was a one-of-a-kind special build and worth mega$$$
but...
but...
The 904 is a lovely car. I have seen a few for sale on the net for reasonable money. I have one in 1/18th 4th from the left in red

Here is a 906 replica but I can't find the 904. I think it was in a Japanese auction?

Couldn't agree more... a case of form follows function.

It's a Lotus. Like a woman, only more expensive and less predictable.
Nice one Richard.

fit that into the Saker instead of the Subie motor?
Don't worry...that thought certainly did cross my mind...
