Oh wow. A one of a kind (maybe) car that’s described as an “absolute weapon”. I think there’s an absolute weapon selling it..

What an odd selection of photos

"Hey, here's me breaking the law - buy my motor, yeah?"

Reads as 55mph to me - what am I missing?

Using a phone/camera whilst at the wheel of a moving vehicle.

Did the driver take the photo?

Bizarre selection of photos! Even more bizarre is the price.

Reading the advert I have a hard time imagining this person ever has someone else in the car with them, willingly at least - hence my presumption.

Actually, that's a very good point

We are left to assume that the dog took the photo.

1965 Restored Morris Mini Moke, Swiftune Racing Engine For Sale

£39,995

I dunno that this is an especially unfair asking price.

What is it worth unrestored, how much did it cost to restore, how much are the modifications worth? In the dope smoking days when these things were made they would not have been so well turned out so the condition has been raised well above standard.

Probably still not worth £12,500 more than a brand new one. https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202201191...

(OK, not quite the same, but an interesting comparison)

The Swiftune Race Engine is probably worth more than that on its own.

A dealer that likes pricing high, but come on £80k for a 70k mile g60??

I do hope that G60 sells, otherwise it's going to get reposted on here every other day for god knows how long.

Deffo is a rare, and probably nice, buy for an enthusiast, it's just the rather optimistic price.

: That's top money too (£700) !!

I like that Micra.
Would happily pay 700 pounds for it.

I posted this on previous page - it's a very rare car (try finding another) but it's also top money.

Interior isn't original by the looks of it too.

It'll no doubt sell - I can't remember the last time I saw one for sale in the last 10 years. I say this as someone that recently sold an original Rallye Recaro interior (an option on the Rallye)--not seen a set of those for sale in the same period.

Considering what else you could get for £80,000, it's a massive no from me.

[Castrol for a knave]

This has to be a spoof.

That said, I could see Dogstar paying that for the car, so long as he chucks in his missus.

Photo of car under car cover (as if that's magic proof it has been looked after)? Family and thumb in photos? One line description?

Bet the phone's red hot with that one.

Personally though I wouldn’t even consider buying a car without a photo of it with a cardboard box on the passenger seat. Otherwise, if you need to transport a cardboard box, how would you know it fitted?

Somewhat optimistic me thinks

Half-mil for a 275 mile Diablo, anyone?



I know Diablos have been creeping up, and rightly so, but chuffing 'eck.

Jesus H... The only redeeming features I can see are the retro AA Relay stickers - I quite like those.
