Yep I think monied people putting in collections.
Harry Metcalfe had his for years and Neil Clifford been talking about his on Chris Harris podcast on last couple.
Much as I like my LY I am apprehensive at having loads about.
I remember when they did that mustardy 208 a couple of years back & loads about. Wife has a 25th Anniversary MX5 in Soul Red & every 2nd Mazda SUV you see is in soul red.
Another one and went reserve met at £20.5k. And just had £17k engine rebuild. Guess be hoping for a bit of a run on price later as nears the end.
Paintwork looks a bits strange on rear door. Silver a pain to match from all angles...
I am shockingly surprised at what I bought once 15 years ago for £10 and never watched again.
Even worse what I got in the 80's on VHS for £10 when I was working for £1.50 an hr in a supermarket.... then never watched again.
Get Die Hard on VHS ( maybe ex Video shop copy watched 100 times...
Yes I read this to then watched 28 Days later. Thought about selling before it gets re-released when 28 years later comes out.
I saw an add on valuable DVD's and I got a Bladerunner Steelbook DVD worth a bit.
And my Bro said my Start Wars DVD's feature the original theatrical version that was...
Was at a random tower & the car bark was rutted & tree root ridden.
Parked next to this.
Interestingly had just watched a Video on Youtube the night before on Caymen R saying how rare they were. Only 100 in the UK.
Upto this point I had no idea what it was.
Half way up to tower I hear it...
I watched a couple of vids on Autobahn the other day.
Harrys Garage had in old Lambo Countach and was doing 150 mph. Poster car of the 80's.
Then AutoTopNL had a a mapped 340i touring doing +180 mph. (Then a Stage 2 G80 M3 CS doing +200)
What a world we live in when speed so accessible.
The...
Yes. You make up a solution of it.
Only last a short amount of time.
Just intrested to see how long. But the untreated ones lasting longer than expected. Maybe a slight oil residue? Maybe should have cleaned first.
Well I went to a fair & got a garden ornament. At the stall she called it 'ready to rust'
So to help my 14 year old daughter I had a little experiment.
I dipped one bird in salt Solution (3%) and painted Bilt Hamber Atom Mac on the other.
After 1 Day.
After 6 Days. Dry But overnight...
Leggy Cossie just sold on Collecting Cars for £21K + Fees. Seems pretty sensible money.

Seen a few yellow spec-c hatches advertised. Do look good.
Good to have a non-UK colour too.
Very limited market though as you say whole market dropped.
I guess still at the phase where the cheaper ones get ragged and crashed and the cream starts to separate out.
Maybe need another 5 years to get there.
We sold our STI Widetrack a couple of years back £4k up over 7 years. Some of that was Covid inflation but I think without that prob held...
Not the JDM stuff.
Mega trick twin scrolls & diff with super tweeking of suspension.
This would be where my money would go for a saloon or the aforementioned R205 as hatch. JDM to skip 15 years of UK rust.

2.5 was supposed to be a pain. Dont think any were stronger.
12k one be fine especially if stays low miles and higher miles one just had rebuild.
Somewhere in the middle not so good.
Much as I loved Cossie tag the R205 JDM be better car. More Revvy and less laggy with a remap getting you...
Thread reboot.
I looked at a couple of these 10 years ago. Still have a soft spot combined with 2.5l chocolate engine fear. Clearly stuff like latest RS3 or AMG A43S have optimised the genre these days.
Anyway 2 have appeared for sale.
1. Leggy one on collecting cars with Engine rebuild. Not...
Prop just need new washer jets.
Just did one on MX5 earlier this year. Bit of a pain as windscreen scuttle needed removed.
I think there is some kind of valve in the jets that can get gunked up.
Cracking Harrys Garage with an old 964 RS.
Great to hear a first hand drive as were always much talked about back in 90's but pre Internet so never seen a video.
Watched Calvins Car diary the other night. He was letting Arthur (now 82) back in his 600 bhp Golf R.
He did nor seem to know how to work the key or handbrake. Not sure if this was real or for effect.
If real fair enough as he is 82. But in that case not sure I would want him driving me on the...
