His wife says : It looks like Kryten's head. What the hell is that??

And he was trying to out-run Porsches and Bimmer M3s? After he probably paid 300 quid for it! Quite a funny listing though but I reckon that must be the only Ph.1 with A/C that I've seen. After a day like today when it was so hot in my non-A/C rig that I thought my legs were on fire I momentarily thought A/C might be good idea but then I went back to 1986 RD levels and the thought that Autumn's coming now.

I just told the wife ( who's about to drop) that this geezers selling his 16v because his wife's about to drop. She said : he should keep it, maybe he needs to drive her to the hospital quickly. That's the right thinking luv! :D

Ok, I never saw Red Wharf but is this the culprit? Think that guys wife must be a bit hormonal - he looks like a cardboard box with a face not like a French Classic Car..

Nice car, I like that. Definately wants saving. The owner sounds like he's slightly delusional with the Porka and M3 tags though.....a Sierra XR4i/Cavvy SRi 130/MG Montego Turbo rival maybe.

His wife also clearly knows sweet FA about cars :lol:

Admittedly I wouldn't want A/C in my valver, sapping away all the power and making it even harder to access certain areas under the bonnet, but it's got to be a rare feature. And a ph1 in black is by no means common!

I have had a bid, but not met reserve.
