Maybe not bargains, but I think a few of us nostalgic types would be able to take a lottery-winners shopping list here:

Especially one thats been ruined.

Theres a TD but its got a nasty dent (ZX bodywork was very prone to dents) and the exhaust is hanging off

(Sitting here wondering if the dent would sucker out and a liberal application of gungum. Miss my old ZX)

This would've been alright if the red insert on the boot can come off http://www.gumtree.com/p/cars-vans-moto ... /100441094

there was one for sale on ebay awhile back,
looked realy scruffy but having a close look it was tidy, been on a farm so it was caked in shite,

iwas tempted to buy it and run the 6mths tax and mot off it, it wouid of been cheap motoring at 275 even more running on wvo

That first ZX isn't a car its a portable generator for them lights. Knock two digits off the price and its about right.
The other two are nice decent cars, i remember the ZX TD my grampa and aunt had them things were flying machines. That blue one looks like a tidy motor.

something completely different, a big honda:

The DAF Variomatic "gearbox" system was bloody clever; much simpler, lighter, and less expensive than a normal gearbox full of meticulously-picked and very sensitive gears, cogs and other moving parts all soaking in transmission fluid.

Say what you like about it, but if I had a snapped rubber band, I'd be happier than if I had a knackered gearbox as it would cost a lot less to replace the rubber band!

I guess that it's maybe not as suitable for cars with more powerful engines though. The little DAFs the Variomatic system was fitted to weren't as powerful as modern cars, but I'm sure it'd be fine for very small city cars (Smart cars, little 1.0 litre Clios and Corsas, etc).
