How's about a 2CV - don't see many of those about these days.

Didn't those have the somewhat annoying habit of going straight ahead at corners?

That's what handbrakes are for

you should not be so hasty to dismiss.

Is that the car Connery was referring to Doodab?

Slightly over budget and needs a bit of tinkering but could set you on the path to living the dream.

1968 MGC 3.0 Restoration Project Convertible - Complete with For Sale on Car And Classic UK

Fook...never liked the MGBs -esp the C with its dodgy engine (IIRC) more of a Triumph man but wtf 5k!!!

[Troll]

Mate of mine bought a Midget convertible for about 3K. Nice car but a pain to maintain. Something or other needs fixing now and then. But it holds its value.

More fook...my 1st car was a AH Sprite MkIV....another can't believe its 3k!!!

Just seen what TR6's are being sold for ....shocking

[Bacchus]

That's the car!!!!!

Or this one

<swoon>

The black one looks nice but to restore its value you would have to restore its black bumpers, and to stop getting pulled over you would have to restore its plastic number plates

Keep these things as original as possible!

Years ago a girlfriend showed me her sister's TR5 - sister had emigrated and wanted to know whether she'd "get a grand for it" - it was mint with a very low mileage; like a dougnut because I wanted to get my little end away, instead of saying "no, but here's £800 to show willing" I said that she'd get much more than a grand for it. She sold it a couple of weeks later for £7500, and that was back in the eighties!! I did get my end away, but at what a price!!
