Gruff HardingHow are you going to explain the purchase after hitting a fifth division win?
Anyhoo, a few beauts today, but first this - get it and you too can pick the car of your choice

Number two - is purple your lucky colour? Better hope so, because British reliability

Jack Yan (甄爵恩)@GruffHarding @IceNine Ah, but was yours twin-carb with the 1300?
I'd hope so!
Thing I like about older cars, you lift the bonnet and can immediately recognise an engine!
A nice honest car, with honest description
I think @BobLefridge left it sitting out the front for a few years
On the beach

@IceNine @GruffHarding @BobLefridge I think this shows how restrictive Trade Me is with descriptions. The seller probably wanted to write Fiat 124 Sport Spider but couldnʼt.
@jackyan @IceNine @BobLefridge https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/cars/ford/cortina/listing/5762087452 when I win lotto tonight I an gonna buy this, then get it repainted in Sherwood Green. In honour of the one I bought from mystic Granddad
Bob LeFridge 
Tidy vehicle, but $16k for a Cortina?
@BobLefridge @jackyan @IceNine https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/cars/toyota/corolla/listing/5766979559 what's worse is we used to buy these for 500 bucks in the the early 90s
@GruffHarding @BobLefridge @jackyan
That and 323s were just everywhere
Some times they'd pass a warrant, but oh the rust
@GruffHarding @BobLefridge @jackyan
I knew I should have waited - 1.7L sewing machine

@IceNine @BobLefridge @jackyan is the singer a sport version of the hunter, i'e more gauges same rubbish performance.
@IceNine @BobLefridge @jackyan I'm still here fellas 😁, I've just been a bit distracted with let's say admin, but all is well 😁
@GruffHarding @BobLefridge @jackyan
I found a cracker though 😆

They buffed the engine out!
@IceNine @yakmoose @BobLefridge @jackyan https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/cars/subaru/brumby/listing/5920872214 I found the perfect classic!
@GruffHarding @yakmoose @BobLefridge @jackyan
So did I!
Not as eyecatching this one, and you'll have to travel a bit further Gruff than Happy Valley, but it is half the price.
I'm sure Bob had at least two of them and also did some dodgy mission in one too, but there's not many vehicles which don't tick those boxes. Nissan Cube perhaps?
https://www.trademe.co.nz/a/motors/cars/other/other/listing/5939871462
Nah. I never owned anything big and thirsty like the Sunbeam.
But I did desire a Brumby for a while. Fifteen years ago they were around $2,500 for a decent one. Suffice to say, I'm shocked at the current prices.
@BobLefridge @jackyan @GruffHarding @yakmoose
Have I finally found a car you and your brother didn't get up to no good in?!
@IceNine @BobLefridge @jackyan @yakmoose the Corollas I used to buy for five hundy are now 20k, along with the Cortinas. My Dad used to say the same thing about all the Chevs he rolled down various banks/paddocks. I'm keeping my 2003 Xtrail. One day it's gonna be a classic 😁
@GruffHarding @BobLefridge @jackyan @yakmoose
Only issue I have with any car that might become a classic is I actually use it
