I find that fiesta surprisingly appealing, it's high in novelty value but £3k is too rich for such a toy.

Interesting that you were a Panda owner. We currently run two Panda 4x4 s and great little sure footed cars they have proved to be. My 54 Wolsley 4/50 must be the worst handling car I have but a graceful old lady if respected. I would expect the assessors to be limited to higher value crashes and I have known many cases where undeclared modifications have resulted in no cover being invoked. This does not affect third party claims.
Were?

I'm down to one now. I'm after a 4x4 if one's going spare. wink
There will be a black 2009 two owner Fiat Panda 4x4 with a low, genuine warranted 18, 000 miles going spare when I get back from the USA. Typical of these cars everything works exactly as it should. You are most welcome to Pm me if you are interested. They are wonderful small 4x4's as you obviously know and another one s coming to replace this one. I am back this weekend.

This car has been garaged for last three years and looked after. It shows on the V5 as having a 1.2 litre engine but actually has a 2.0 litre 8 valve engine installed.

This is a fast car with a very clean engine. Car has been lowered with alloys and new tyres all round.. Straight-through exhaust, leather seats etc. Paperwork available re new clutch and other new parts.

Car starts first time on the key .

There are not many of these cars about! It is a good sleeper, done well.

It does need an MoT but the first to see it will ascertain that it will pass with no problems. Many thanks, good luck!

Open to good offers.

Give me a call on 07926 228948.

Do my ancient eyes deceive me or is the font on the plates illegal? Could be a candidate for the dodgy plate as well as the dodgy logbook/registration forums. There are some nuts about! Just genuinely brainless I presume.

Thanks for the translation! Maybe you should offer your services on eBay to those listing cars, so that the uneducated like me can understand their descriptions smilehehe

And yes, hadn't spotted that. I'm sure the normal font isn't quite so italic!

Good post that unregistered car is never road legal. Then there is the insurance question. Not worth a candle it's not registered because the seller knows how difficult that will be. One to avoid.

Shame about the logbook knobbery and daft twunt hooning about the industrial estate in the video, but the car itself is actually quite cool in my opinion. Put a few poverty spec 206 parts on it (steel wheels etc) and that would be a lot of fun!

Not a bad sleeper, is it? Sadly damn near impossible to get it legal. Destined to be torque steered into a lampost while showing off to 15 year old slappers.

At best. Every chance it will be weighed in. Registering such cars as the sellers are very much aware is now very difficult indeed if actually achievable. The DVLA will not accept any parts used without full provenance. The days of slotting in an engine and driving the car legally went some years ago. These are not worth much more than scrap unless someone can use the parts and wants the trouble of getting them off the car. Very limited market post IVA.

That is a brilliant idea, well executed and I imagine an absolute hoot to drive.

Just another example of time, money and effort going to waste for the sake of a stamp. frown
