Pikey009 Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Hi all, one of my lads spotted this today so I went and viewed it. Details are: One owner since new 50k certified mileage No service history Just passed mot but in my opinion it needs a total restoration It’s located in the outskirts of Abingdon near Oxford.

Pikey009 Posted April 19, 2021 Author Share Posted April 19, 2021 It’s up for 900 and was his mother’s car (he seemed around 50 years old himself). She’s had it from new and has got too old to drive it. She can’t find any history. The body needs a tlc as you can see. Id be tempted myself but am in the middle of doing my GT. Thought I got a better picture of the for sale sign but can go back if you need me to as it’s literally a mile from me Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Dale SR Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 She Looks really good, its a shame the arches are rusting a bit with that mileage. Hopefully she finds a good home. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pikey009 Posted April 23, 2021 Author Share Posted April 23, 2021 She looks good from a distance and in the pics but when you get close it’s a different story Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Still not bad for the money there asking. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pikey009 Posted April 26, 2021 Author Share Posted April 26, 2021 (edited) It’s because it’s been sat in the same place for months on end and years upon years with minimal use. Not using a car can be just as bad as over using it in my opinion. It needs saving but would take a real enthusiast to throw 3k just at the body. My hunch is that the bloke will get desperate, lower to 500 or maybe less, then we will see bits of it for sale on eBay. Eve doing that there’s hardly any profit to be had Edited April 26, 2021 by Pikey009 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Fingers crossed someone will snap her up and inject some love 😊 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pikey009 Posted April 28, 2021 Author Share Posted April 28, 2021 Yeah she's worth saving but i guess it will take a real enthusiast. Still sat there this week. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
