yes... but, 6 years and 25k without a service???

Weird gap in the hugely weird ad. No barge pole will be employed.

I didn't even read most of the ad due to its oddness. One to avoid then.

Don't worry it clearly says FSH in the title

MOT History is missing two MOTs (but a decent increase in mileage) as well. It just looks odd.

Looks clean though, but I'd want some explanation re the history.

I think we should bombard the seller with questions, along the lines of...

"This is a nice car, but what I'm really looking for is a £200 Mk4 Golf. Do you have one for sale?"

"Your car is overpriced. I can pick up a highly modified Turbo 2000 for around £2k, making your Scooby seem expensive. Would you consider fitting a larger exhaust and dropping the price to around £2,000?"

"You seem like a genuine guy, but I trust no-one, so I'm going to want to see your travel papers. Can you supply?"

"I'm not going to be picky, but I do want to see a video. You can pick the weather conditions (I'm very flexible). Can you send it to me ASAP?"

A charming little thing and pretty cheap as well. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Renault-5-Renault-Classi...

I sort of like this as well! http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Audi-100-GL-5E-Low-miles...

Having recently sold our Mercedes W126 we are now looking to replace it with something a bit classic/retro.
Budget around £5000 but there seems to be very little out there.
Not that long ago we would have had a lot more choice.
Prices for anything half desirable have gone through the roof.
Looked at a Capri last night described by the seller as excellent but it was far from it.

That Audi looks in great nick, but I've never been much of a fan of the 100. I'd much prefer a restored 200, maybe because my old man used to have one.

I'll drop this to £5k for anyone on this thread.

Mark, that E21 you have for sale is amazing.

[PartOfTheProblem]

Ah, so that's where they got the idea!

When I was 18 I shared a house with a giant Scotsman who had a 2.2 Princess. He perfected getting the thing airborne over some humpbacked bridge between Steeple Claydon and Silverstone on the way to work. It was great bit of kit. But by way of comparison, I did have a 1961 Ford Consul. For fk's sake, it was 1995 - what the hell were we doing?

Noticed this in my old mans copy of Practical Classics which is odd, because according to him it was neither practical or worthy of the classic title

Does the tape deck work?

My folks had one as a nipper but the tape deck was filled with crisps and dog hair

I have literally just purchased my Dadwagon after a long search where I chopped and changed targets at least fifteen times, like a horny chav in a nightclub. Unfortunately I am out of the island for 3 weeks so cannot get the keys to it. Can confirm it is wedgy, practical, classic, iconic and surprisingly (Im guessing/hoping) rare. Just to be a tease I dont want anyone gazumping the deal so all will be revealed June 27th on collection.
Somebody else will get the joy of this Morris beast, much to the relief of my Mrs.
The Morris and Wolseley badged versions were only produced for a year or so so this might be the only one left??? Amazing if true, certainly the best around, what a corker!

Never come across one of these before... It was only last night I was dreaming of having 4x4 in my 106 XSi project...
