Crazy was thinking the same thoughts. Looks like a custom stahlberg model. Wouldn't like to think how much a 145 in similar condition would be up for! |

Spotted that. It's really nice, all the details are right on the money.

Looking like someone considerably richer than me has pulled the trigger.
Vfm compared to the later low mileage models ppl asking £7000 for.
Noticed 164's have jumped up in price too in good nick and 700/900 series are not budget buys anymore.

I REEEAAAAAAALLLLY want a 145 (preferably with small indicators, but I don't know why some have small and some have large). Suspect I'll have to go to Europe to get one and live with LHD now though (had LHD before and don't mind it).
PV544 also in my sights ... but a Duett Van is my dream.

That one going through Kings Lynn is an early facelift with overdrive - it looks very good. The grille on these is still alloy, albeit much of it painted black. I had a 1968 145S (2.0, twin carbs) which had the early alloy grille and split rear windows where the rear section opened. I fitted a big valve head from an injection engine and matching cam, an overdrive box and a saloon diff. Did around 35k in two years instead of having a company car. Noisy, compared with the Saab 9000 it replaced, but a brilliant bit of kit. Last saw it in 2004 when (I think) it went to Ireland. Another car I should never have sold.

Pretty serious, I'm looking to register to bid on the one in that auction. Do still need to do some maths on affordability though and I would like one in a slightly lairyier colour  ... Would need to not be a project though. |

Gorgeous, I recall being driven around Snowdonia in the saloon version of this when I was a kid, my Uncle had one in a violent shade of orange. Love the feel & condition of the interior;  |

Was the lower suggested price the reserve? Need pics! |

That's brilliant good luck with your quest! Why do auction results take so long to be posted? Surely they have all results in the pc already? Nec auction results still not online? How we meant to keep up with scene tax? |
