What fucking asshole leaves a car like this outdoors for 3 years?



My God. They are allowed to own such things, and vote. Coming to an oval near you.

Ghosty won't buy this because it isn't a Rover, or some other lame excuse.

It has the most impressive tidemark I've ever seen.

That garage is literally five minute walk from my house. In fact it was where that heavily undersealed orange MGB GT I wanted to buy was. The one in my legendary* MGB buying thread a couple of years ago. Also where I occasionally see Louise2cv green Allegro when it's in for repair/MOT.

Often has interesting stuff in stock. However he is always very expensive. I suspect it's his personal collection and only has them for sale on the basis that if someone is prepared to pay near the asking price, he'll let it go. Also being a classic car repair business, I guess it gives credibility having shiny old stuff for sale.

Some of the stuff he's had in stock literally for years. Including stuff that is carted back and forth from NEC classic car show every year.

That wants painting up as Goering's personal train complete with emblems and an anti aircraft gun on the roof.

"Only selling as it’s too big project for me."

I suspect going for a shit or thinking unaided is too big a project for you.

For You Know Who.

The vendor appears to be a bit of an 'end (it's not a 518i FFS) but.......
