	There's no ebay type cars for sale section anymore so I thought I'd share some interestingish retro stuff I found recently on gumtree. This one's a familiar face. Its the nightmaresracing built volvo 244DL. It's somehow made it's way north and is now temptingly close by. I wanted it badly when nightmares had it and I want it badly now. This is one I might actually do something about. Anyone want to buy a scabby arsed m535i? glasgow.gumtree.com/glasgow/40/55233640.html I wonder how many times the owner has caught drunk guys trying to professionals inspired slides across the bonnet? It looks tidy but I don;t know if it's an Original S or a laser in disguise. Nice car either way. glasgow.gumtree.com/glasgow/68/55183768.html I can't think of the last time I saw unmodified Renner 5 turbo. Where these actually quick? £800 is tempting but why no mot? glasgow.gumtree.com/glasgow/15/55178515.html Why have 1 turbo when you can have 2? £1500 seems pretty cheap for one of these with a decent mot unless it's ready to explode into 1000 tiny and costly bits. glasgow.gumtree.com/glasgow/25/55119925.html I'm always confused by mk1 Golf Gti's as you see ones for £5000, £3000 and £1000 that don't seem to be that far apart in condition. This looks like a decent project for £350 none the less. glasgow.gumtree.com/glasgow/79/55108679.html

	Agree with you on the Golf GTI front. £350 doesn't seem half bad for that though, depending on what he means by the little bit of welding he refers to I suppose. Only the facts that I have plans for the weekend and Glasgee's a bit of a trek are keeping me from that one!

	With no MOT you never know . £350 wouldn't be the end of the world though even it turned out to be a pig and you had to sell it for bits. I really want that nightmares Volvo. Pity I'm skint.

	I looked on the Dundee Gumtree. seen a Renault 5 turbo with lots spent, but knackered big ends, for £800. Maybe 180 bhp was too much for them. :/ dundee.gumtree.com/dundee/10/55246410.html And a Pulsar GTI with big spec for £2000 dundee.gumtree.com/dundee/81/55034981.html

	the bang-buck ratio on these is immense, some simple tweaks and you are near enough 400 bhp as dammit but they are HORRENDOUS on fuel, especially if you have a heavy right foot, i emtptied a tank in less than 4 hours, and that wasnt all spirited driving !

	I wonder if that's the Capri that was always parked beside Primark in the GOMA road, last year anyway.

	Just checking Gumtree Dundee and theres an rs1600i for 500 notes. Adverts a bit bizarre though. Sorry don't know how to post it up.

That sounds like a total bargain. I wonder if it's a genuine 1600i? dundee.gumtree.com/dundee/20/55203420.html This also looks quite interesting. dundee.gumtree.com/dundee/35/55221635.html

	Some more, s13 200sx Turbo for £1200. glasgow.gumtree.com/glasgow/72/55348772.html A tidy looking e28 528i with a year mot and 6months tax for £725. I'm tempted to go and have a look at this. If it was a manual I'd have it for sure. glasgow.gumtree.com/glasgow/24/55342724.html

	1200 for an S13 is overpriced, for about 500 more you can get an s14, that hasnt corroded to nothin !

	I guess Nissan must have sold it as a GT at the time. I've not heard back from that guy in Ayr about that Garage. I'm guessing his Mrs didn't like the idea of us (me) hitting our cars with hammers at their garage.
