Wow! Identical to my Turbo Metro except mine was on a D Plate... Wish I still had it, along with my 205GTi

Apart from my AXs, my all-time favourite and most loved cars...

Hard to believe the current bid level of this given the history that comes with it!!

That is amazing and quite shocking for what in my eyes is one very desirable car... I'd have thought it would have been at least double by now...

Be interesting to see both what the reserve is and what it finally makes... At this rate I can't see it making the reserve...

Strange...

[mickthemaverick]

I can only assume that the CAT C listing is the damaging factor!

[mickthemaverick]

You don't see these around at all so a possible future gem. I liked them in the 70s for the smooth ride and comfortable seats:

Superb cars I loved the column change... I once had the pleasure of driving a 16TS for a few days... It was awesome

That car went cheap!!!!!!!!!! It's surprising today that so many cars were crushed because of a Cat C superficial damage because new parts were more expensive than the cars worth. I might need to open a scrapyard.....

[mickthemaverick]

A very different pair to choose from today, the first for driving fun and the second for cruising fun:

It's a difficult one... On balance I'll go for the Midget... Massive fun and free VED - for now... And it's yellow

A very low mileage original, what's not to like?

I must have been born an old fuddy duddy I've never had any hankering for a sports car or for hotted up cars.
