Default worth a look for a laugh, would you buy it?

Saw this linked on ebay.

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2811854806...d=530083400379

Says it was pulled from a barn, but looks more like it was pulled from a pond.

Q plate, no keys, no documents, but to good to scrap.
discuss.


I personally wouldn't go near the thing with a barge pole.

I suppose, to find a positive point, though moldy, the arches look to be in good shape!

'the exterior body work is very straight with no damage'

Dont mind the arches hanging off in the picture, it gives you a 3D look!

It's not that bad, This is what "t-cut" is meant for!

Hey come on if you have a CAB it would be a good source of parts, the fact that it is a q plate does affect what you would pay.

the seller should go to 'we buy any car' and see what they offer and see if they stick to their word!
