Hopefully off to pick up something retro and interesting ( to me at least). Just a coach, the underground and a train to endure first! Fingers crossed it’s good.

Look forward to the obligatory petrol station shot

Impressively having avoided the rust monster.

In remarkably good nick for a decades-old petrol car at just under 200K miles. Could be a fun weekend car.

So do I. Very rare in that colour even when new. There were only two colour options, and the majority were brown.

Purchased and on its way home.

A haggle over thread budget.

That is a great find! I've always wanted a Monaco - wish I had space for it.

Worth it for the quirky dashboard.

Thanks, it's a 1989 Ford Probe GT Turbo.

If you want to know more about it, I know exactly as much as a quick Google will tell you.

I do like it though.

Bloody hell Woody; even by your eclectic standards, that's a left-field choice!

Well done, and we look forward to hearing more.

P.S. Good drills with the forecourt money shot.

That truly is a period piece. A dashboard of its time. I can hear the plastics creaking from here!

Definitely an eccentric / fun sense of occasion to any day.

That citroen is lovely.

If the car still looks as good as it does in those 3 year old pictures, that would be a very nice buy.

When I tell people I'm after a new car, they ask me what I'm looking for and I tell them I won't know until I see it. If it's st, I'll get something else.


It looked cool and has a very red interior and that was enough really. I've popped up a readers wives thread for it
