Just a touch ambitious !!!

I love bits of the description .... "or just put it together and get the engine running".

Right, that's just a five minute job then rofl

Other bits are spot on though ......."To be honest the car weighs 3 tonnes and it worth about £600.00 in scrap" although I would have added "that's all its worth"

Ad says:

"We priced the car at £9,995.00, but are open to offers"

"Barn Find" kinda suggest that some one forgot it was there, but surely he notice that an old merc was taking up 80% off his garage space, every time he put his bin out. hehe

Fatal isn't it. I've just been sat here wondering how my wife would react if I went downstairs and announced I'd just bought an '85 SL, only needs a bit of work and there's space in the garage at the moment isn't there?



because the Quattro is off having stuff done to it
