Wasn't you bumping it up to a healthy £7.1k then?

Don't worry, this monstrosity is still available for a bit less (not enough less to make up for the roof though). It comes up again & again so obvs not selling.

That nice red Amazon made £7,100 at auction; I thought that was a good price for the seller.

Can't for the life of me think why that Amazon isn't selling!

Bucket-o-rust 240 estate project moneypit for £2k, anyone?
(OK, some rusty bits sorted, more await);
https://www.gumtree.com/p/volvo/1987...ect/1438330467
Although, apparantly sorted with twin Weber DCOEs, new brakes and poly bushes. Probably should have waited until the metal and paintwork was done, eh?

(The chrome gearknob and momo-style steering wheel are a good sign of an enthusiastic owner, so above "new" parts might have seen action already).

Could make a profitable scrapper (at half the price) if the tinworm is too advanced, not that I'd advocate such a heinous crime...
