Another bargain!

I wouldn't be offended if you rocked up outside mine in this, what a beauty, I love it for some reason and the colour is spot on.

These are great, and you can put a Suzuki Swift engine in too......

I really like it as well

If you drove that you'd have to call it "The Bogey"

I would call it 'Jade'.....

Is that the car or Kate WInslet?

Could happily carry on using and just run it into the ground

No, you carry on, it sounds like you have it most of the way there already

I thought this was interesting:

I wonder if there's any finance outstanding on the heap

Just a by the by, when I used to "work" for BT flashing around lots of exchanges all day I'd sometimes have to sign for some delivery or other, usually expensive bits of electronics, as there was usually only me there and I thought "I'll only be here another 20 minutes and if it disappears after that it'll be my name in the frame."

So I signed everything Michael Mouse

Annoyed at the lack of exposed rivets on yer motor? look no further:




Standard wheel a bit drab? spice it up a bit:

I love the fact it seems to have a standard front bumper, wonder what happened to the painted one.......

[steve_earwig]

Looks like a good way to loose a finger

The pics of the car do not do it justice must be seen to be appreciated

Oh yes, you can push that straight over a cliff

Current bid:
£51.00

It's not quite reached it's weigh-in value yet...

It's good advice:

I emailed the seller up its got a starting problem, has had 2 new fuel pumps to try and cure it, the seller believes its an immobiliser fault, but would be willing to sell it whole.

IMPORTED CHINESE ELECTRIC 24 VOLT FIBREGLASS CAR

THE BATTERIES ARE FLAT

ALL THE INSTRUCTION BOOKS ARE IN CHINESE

[steve_earwig]

So the batteries have had it and they'll cost a fortune to replace, and even then it's scrap, er, plastic as it can't be registered. I wonder what the scrap value of the batteries are...

[FarmerPug]

I wouldnt mind trying to do an electric conversion on a real car, like a 106, there are kits available with the parts needed to do it. Although they do cost a bit and the range isn't superb.

Although that thing is just a monstrosity its a reason to be put off electric cars, it looks like mixture of a citroen pluriel and toyota prius.

I had to Google the name of that to find out what it was. Talbot-Matra Murena 2.2 eh? should be easy enough to get spares for it
