Anything that's "POA" is generally always bowel-shatteringly expensive.

sorry - this was in the email i received: "The best offer received by 15.00 hours GMT over £100k will buy this 1963 FIA Specification Low Drag E-Type Jaguar."

which is a fucking steal

Granted, but you don't even have a fucking garage for the Morris Garages...

i'd park that on the street if i had to! given that i'd probably have to sleep in it, too

indeed, RIP defender

the pictured adaptation is silly though, a unimog would be so much better

Was in Mayfair's famously brash Mayfair last night. So many new Defenders and G Wagens. Mostly all murdered out. Anything that's fashionable in Mayfair usually turns my stomach, but I did find myself wanting one.

Agreed.

GWags are hideously expensive to run though.

and shit to drive too (allegedly)

They'll obliterate most other vehicles in a straight line and I know which one of the two I'd rather be travelling in if a collision occurs.

Don't be under any illusion that these are bought by "drivers".

Golf 2013 1.4 TSi DSG 20,000 miles - £10,000 sound about right?

Sounds alright to me.

Main dealer or private?

Dealer, but not a franchise.

Having an AA inspection done in any case.

Did Eau Rouge in a C9 the other day.

😀

Last Defender off the line sold for 400 Gs. Fuck that.

It's a shame G Wagens aren't used properly because they are fucking insane off road.

Wow - one of my favourite cars. Bargain. Imagine that singing at 7k...mmmm

with a wheel up in the air...

It's all about the Haldex with those DSG boxes...

Don't the TSi motors break as well? #vaguerumour,maybeuntrue
