For sale on Ebay at the moment http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Lancia-Beta-Montecarlo-r...
I used to run a nice one of these as daily transport (with brakes sorted) but it didn't look quite like this!

Isn't that the Lancia Beta Monty Cohen?

That's bizarre - why would you do that? I like the fact that the advert completely fails to mention the comedy add on snout.

"needs a bit of tlc" - the umbrella phrase used to describe complete basket cases no one in their right mind would touch with a barge pole.

Back in the 80's my mate parted with £800 for one of these. It was a non runner so needed towing, as we pulled away and took up the tension, the bulkhead started to separate from the body . I've seen cars under the ocean with less rust on them.

Needless to say it was an expensive lesson learned.

Car is horrid but I am loving the 80's aftermarket alloys (Alleycats?).

Hilarious ! especially the fact they don't mention the "modification" - maybe they think it's supposed to look like that.

I'm almost tempted

The world's biggest impact bumper, fitted with the brakes in mind?

That's brilliant.
