Bought some left over bits of a guy who had had his Ford Pop since 1972. Car was scrapped for a Hyundi so must have been MOT'd. He said the paint was cracked and it would of cost a fortune to respray.
I drove over his lawn when i left. ;D

Few people would call it a great car, but the 14,000 mile Volvo 740 was a bit galling. I'm not moaning about it though.

I personally bought several of the tastiest cars in the for sale section a year ago SPCIFICALLY so that I could trade them under the scrappage scheme for the CHEAPEST and MOST NASTY Pacific rim cars I could find! Sorry, it's the wine talking. Have a KIA.

this one is now not going to the scrappage scheme, after the fuego 'scandal' another customer came in wanting to do a scrappage with another salesman,the words granada were overheard,so over i went. another i am gonna get mot'd to scrap it story, popped over to his house and found this ^ so managed to do a deal on a pre reg car,the difference in this case was £500 dearer to him,so thats what i gave for it and thats what it will soon be for sale at. so come on who wants to save this rare desirable classic? i _________________

I knew of a mint 35 thou mile mk 1 golf gti that got scrapped against a vw fox? I even offered him the 2 grand for the car just to save it and he said no as it was easier just to do the scrapage deal! Begged him and said it was a crime to scrap such a car but he still said no! He'd owned it since new :-( could have cried.
