Ebay shitter of the week
This one's good for a laugh:

I wouldn`t mind if I could understand even a quarter of what he said. Nice list of motorways that is hasn`t `disappointed him on`. I wonder if there`s any that it DID though?
To his credit there`s a few useful looking spares which are probably worth more than the car alone. Hard to judge how it will go but I don`t see him making much (if anything) over the starting price as it wants work and cannot be moved.
It`ll also be a `mare to get onto a low loader or recovery truck with the suspension stuck down so unless someone collects who knows what they`re doing there`s more potential problems there.
Still, the sunroof deflector could be auctioned on here and would probably raise silly money!

He`d be more than welcome to post it to me. The letterbox won`t be his biggest problem though, that`ll be Mrs Cavmad and her legendary rolling pin
Having re-read the listing I reckon that`s actually not a bad buy really. In the hands of the right buyer it`s potentially a nice car. Describing it as a `sh*tt*r` is a bit off, it`s a cheap, saveable car with some useful and sought after spares to go with it.
I reckon in about ten years (or less) time the likes of the new door and rear panel will be worth a good few bob to an enthusiast. Good luck to him, if I didn`t have some many forms of transport knocking about (got two more tonight ) and no money I`d have a go at it.
