  • I have no need for this vehicle, but the cheapness combined with the practicality make me want it.

    My car is roughly the same size, but I suspect is slightly more expensive to run.

    Wrongcog, my tank takes 70 litres of super unleaded for ~£95 and will get me ~370 miles.

    What'll yours do?

    What does yours come up as on the kitchen scales?

  • I've never weighed my car, I have to admit- probably because I am a slovenly wretch in many things.

    The general wisdom of the Internet says it should be around 1,500kg I believe.

  • Proper sled.
    If I didn't already have a much smaller and far less rad car I'd be all over it.

  • Only 400gn to insure too for me.
    Fucking bargins right here. Someone buy this sharpish.

    that motor has a 55ltr tank - accoridng to this site that means 51 combined mpg and a range of 622 miles. If you were on a long motorway trip though that would be nearer 700 miles IME.

  • ^^^^I think there is a weighbridge at a scrap dealers in Lewisham. It would be Forum Gold if you did.

  • I have no need of this car but I want it.
    Luckily I cannot afford it.

    That way madness lies.

    About right. One of the best things about this car is the legs. I can get to Norfolk for about 12 quid if I don't let the needle over 3000 rpm. If you sit on the motorway at under 80 it goes forever.

  • Proper rat

  • For clarity - this is dibsed pending a look this weekend.

  • I'd love to buy this and it will be a proper sensible workhorse for someone but i have too many wheeled vehicles.

  • Car now sold. Cheers to Steve. God bless it and all who sail in it etc'.

    Hope it serves you well.

  • Thanks....it's a great little motor....already had an overnight camping and a quick mtb trip!

  • Good to hear.

    Thread closed (sorry Hoefla).
