Very cheap. Don't underestimate the work required to get an unregistered 80's kitcar through SVA though.

I'd say that was totally over priced. Looks like its been sitting in there for ages and then exploded just a mess really. I think I would feel cursed if I owned it and suicidal if I had paid £700 for the privilege.

How big is that text! I could read that from the other end of the office.

Yip, I'd expect it registered for £700. Maybe worth around £300?

Have a look at www.duttonownersclub.co.uk

Phaeton S1 for sale First registered 1978. Green. Garaged. 1700cc Ford cross flow. Piper 285 cam. Duplex timing gear. Reground crank. Lightened flywheel. 3.54 differential. Aero screens and full weather gear. Runs but requires attention to brakes. Last MOT 2004. £750.

Tell me about it bought mine mostly built but is was started nearly 10 yrs ago so a lot of SVA compliant issues - took me 1.5 yrs to sort out

I was more of thinking of junking the fugly body and making a 7 type car out of it, would require a fair bit of modificating.

Looking at the state of the disks, wheels and engine I'd say it was just pushed out there for the photo.

Without weathergear it would be a real mess after a week, so it must be kept under cover.

Totally, at first I thought the dope had crashed into a tree going be the state of the car. It'll be stolen and dumped, now someone’s found it trying to make some money, hence the unregistered bit.

I'd love how you explain to the SVA guy...'We'll I bought it of this guy on ebay who found it in a wood, ehem here's his receipt...'
