They're pretty cream crackered.

Are these not in the 'old car' category, rather than 'classic'?

If they were looked after 30 year old bluebirds and carinas they could have a classic value.

Maybe they'll be classic in 10 years time, by then we will feel nostalgic for 1990.

when kept in good order those old cars will serve better than most modern crap that peopel drive these days. Those two in the ads there seem to be someone trying to get a relatively excessive amount of money for old ****e though. There are better examples of each of those cars to be found.
Cars of this age have been "tolerated"/"Allowed" in this section before for quite some time now.
There would be far too much hostility towards scary evil old cars in the main motors section.

I was looking for a bluebird, that one looks rightly shagged. It would have to be free! Would not pay a penny for that particular one anyway.

What? bluebirds that age are fwd so you'd have a very hard time getting one with an RB engine. And any older rwd one would have had to be converted.
Nonsense post there.

I might be tempted to sell mine if anyone is interested...





1.6l, 71k miles, timing belt went in last week, NCTd to august 2012, and taxed to november - Needs nothing except a new owner with 950E!

gyppos one looks good.

I'd never buy a freshly imported UK reg one here though like the red one and one and the white H/B, as that's someone trying to make quick money ripping people off for a car they bought for a couple of hundred. Those are still cheap in the UK. Now if only the grey diesel one had the engine from the ZX turbo, that's be a nice one.

Pitty thats a hatchback as I only want a saloon version as my dad had a saloon one.

That white zx turbo is similar to the one my dad had. His one was an 87' silver zx. Mad money for that white one! I reckon he got that for a few hundred quid in the UK. Ye a rare enough car but still worthless really, love to see proof of that zx's mileage also.

You'd be surprised, the zx is pretty rare even over there and a fairly good one would be over a grand sterling. The one in the link if overpriced for sure but you'd struggle to find a turbo that wasn't half dead or mostly dead for anything below high hundreds

I'd love a zx turbo bluebird, one can get terribly nostalgic when you see a car your parents use to have:(

Does anybody know where I can pick up a diesel carina II cheap enough from 1989-1992

For parts or repair as I have a White carina II I need a diesel engine and a few parts from the body! If I can pick up a clean one cheap enough I'd nearly drive it and leave mine for parts!

Any help wud be great folks! Thanks
