How in the name of fuck did a Camargue end up in that state? :-(

It does indeed appear to be a Khamsin.....A Maser with Citroen hydraulic systems. Wonder why that got scrapped....

I can't get over the delightful half arsedness of the steering wheels of these.

They must have nicked it from a Chinese forklift truck, or a dodgems.

They don't go wrong though. Given correct maintenance, they just run and run and run. The Rolls Royce V8 (particularly n/a ones) is an engine that has no definable lifespan. Oil, coolant, plugs and points every year. Built in 1971, see you in 50 or 60 years. GM400 Hydramatic, simple electrics, tough suspension.
