Re: Another Mk 1 with an ambitious price
Oh god it's beige, and a 14 and a MK1. My ideal other BX and GT accompaniment, just a shame I can't afford it...
I'm allowed it, if I sell my astra. I just might you know? If no one else is going to take a punt?

Re: Another Mk 1 with an ambitious price
No MOT = Scrap, haha.... Ok, it's a mark 1, lets say twice the scrap price as an absolute maximum, so it's a little high, but it could be a little gem seeing as its had a grands worth of work done in the last few years.

Re: Another Mk 1 with an ambitious price
Nice flaps too! Is 'hearing aid beige' an official Citroen colour then Mark?
I think it looks great.
I can't watch that vid unfortunately ( 'not available in your country') Paul here out in sausage world.

Re: Another Mk 1 with an ambitious price
This car is "A" registered which I guess make its more desireable, it spent the first two years in the IOM hence why its listed as a 1986 car, when in fact it was 1984.

Re: Another Mk 1 with an ambitious price
The seller is indeed ambitious, they apparently won't take anything less than £500 for it! I'm not sure who they are or the extent of their knowledge, but I informed them in the least patronising way possible that it ain't never gunna fetch 500, but I didn't want to offend, or let it get scrapped come to that. So we'll see what happens.
