That has been for sale for ages!
I may have been partly responsible for it too. I had a set of 4 front 224s for my 2nd 3.0Si that I had been thinking of fitting with non-runflats but then I got a set of 295s that I preferred. So back in September 2018 I sold them to someone who was selling his MC and wanted to sell his wheels separately. :lol:
At the summit of the picturesque fens
And it's only £139,950 which is a bargain for an E86 at the present time (the zero is obscured by the A pillar in the photo I'm presuming). If it had the wheels sorted Lord knows what it would fetch!$hed said:
I do like the 'retro' feel of the dealer, though. A 1980s Merc, a 1995 ish Mondeo st220 and I'm sure that is a mk6 Escort in the background
I think you’ve just started this thread for ideas for your next V8 monster 
If you scratch the surface, the seller does not have a good name. I know someone who went to view a Mitsubishi Evo, he said he’s never seen so many nails in one place and they do have a lot of cars.
Good point.john-e89 said:
The idea was for the worst cars you can find, then potentially give a "shed of the week" prize. I thought the prize could be the same as that for picture of the month competition (that is sweet FA)
But, hey as long as it's entertaining I couldn't really give a toss
Given up the V8 idea for various reasons (mainly emissions and lack of decent cars around).Argyll Andy said:
I forgot I did own a V8 once for a whole two weeks. It was a Rover SD1 vanden plas 3.5 which I was going to restore. Then I sobered up and realised nobody would want a restored SD1, I sold it pronto
I think this may qualify. A superb example of a Jago Jeep, finished in puke yellow. Based on a perfectly good Ford, then someone spent a significant amount of money making it much, much worse. I think the highlights of this particular example are the colour-coded rocker cover, the rally seating (for four with harnesses), the Momo steering wheel and the bitumen inspired dash.john-e89 said:
The best part is that it hasn't reached it's reserve yet and the bidding is up to £1900 on the bay. I seriously think I am living on the wrong planet
I remember my brother getting one of these back in the 80's. His mate came to our house and said, wait until you see what he's brought.Pondrew said:I think this may qualify.

You could hear this thing about 1/4 of a mile away, it had a Essex V6 fitted and was so loud.
A total piece of poop.
An 80’s ‘scort’ with an understandably long gone Rattlesnake body kit…the description says….I kid you not…The escort is believed to be the missing Rattlesnake escort’…. :lol: Missing according to whom…? Somehow I don’t think it’s in the same ball park as Del Boys missing mariner timepiece fetching £6.2mill as this piece of 80’s junk along with rust is yours for around £10k….mugs line up….

By the seaside...
Another peachy little number…a once cracking car turned into, as so many are, a boy racer utter s**t box…complete with oooohhhhhh bad boy bonnet as they’re called, half roll cage bolted to absolutely nothing, chequer plate subs box, no back seats and ‘Racing car’ fronts to complete the look of this Dagenham bag of shite dustbin….I can only imagine the rust and hidden horrors this lump of crap is hiding….yours for a start bid of £5,500….line up either the very drunken brave or the rose tinted specced 10yr old chavs for this one…
