ad does not fill me with confidence "Runs and drives"

What more do you need? Running and driving is what I want from a car. Maybe stopping too, now I come to think about it, but running and driving is an excellent start.

It's Friday, you should buy it!

For the same money - applying man maths because you’d have to buy 2 Masers, either one to cannibalise or to stand a fighting chance of at least one working at a time

Friday budget 3+ times thread.
Germanic
Power, torque, comfort
Not a black interior
Dog department
Less than six fig mileage
Those wheels ! with sensible sidewalls
Cup holders mentioned - hopefully working

That runway shot is familiar, have had experience with him re an M3.

Enteresting set up

No idea what that is worth but a C63 wagon does all of the above sir, and you get change.

Just checked the MOT history, it's very clean, but then it seems to have only covered a few centimetres in the last century

It runs, it drives, but not very far.

I'm out.

Disappointing lack of commitment and jeopardy, old fruit.

"Runs and drives" reminds me of an Anglia Car Auctions description.

I am divesting myself of old metal, the LAST THING I NEED is a complex shagged Italian nightclub booth on wheels that has been static for the last 10 years

I think you should buy it.

Whilst I am at it, you fancy a werthers/mushroom soup R129? It drives and it runs.

I've seen these with a discreet exterior, tasteful interior colours and a flushing marine-style toilet at the rear. I'd be quite happy to be shuttled around the London big shops and theatres in such a machine.

Maybe this was Taylor Swift's, and she's pre-oranged the interior to save JSO the bother?

Wonderful.

yep, it is.

Could buy it just to gawp at it. But then, you could buy a die cast version and, per Father Ted, just hold it closer.

Running and driving at the same time - Like Fred Flinstone ...

I sold my classic on Tuesday and am now down to two cars. I plan to stay that way for ever as long as I can.

This week I can't decide whether I want to buy an Austin Seven, a LHD MG Maestro 1600 R series (the worst of the three engines) or an Arnage T Mulliner.

Probably neither as I'd struggle to part with the Century.

Friday.

As it is Friday, so price does not matter - How about a Bentley that is a Century old...

Almost as classy as an LDV Convoy?

[21st Century Man]

Ooh! Not Green. Out of my price though for sure.

[macron]

Ooh what a site. If the plate can be separated I reckon you could flog it and this could be a free car. Or maybe a 55k car. Or a 100k car. Whatevs, lush.

Dear 21st Century, I passed a black century today heading south on the M74/M6 today. Rear curtains etc, but unusually, a Belgian plated registration.

It was of a similar vintage as yours. Quite a machine.

We reckon there are more than a dozen V12's here now, with probably a further one or two in each/most European countries. UK has by far the highest number though.
