On Auto trader there is a 1982 Austin Princess for sale for £7,250


1982 AUSTIN PRINCESS 2.2HLS Auto You are looking at probably the best Austin Princess2 around in the country. 2owners from new. Totally,totally original. This car is amazing seen at many classic car shows in Scotland and well admired. Finished in gorgeous Ember glow red with totally unmarked (and never sat on back seats) Savanah HLS trim. TAX&MOT. This car must be seen to be believed!!. Never been used on the clock only. 15500 miles. £7250.

Who is crazy enough to pay that amount of money for a car like that? Dont know what never been used on the clock is supposed to mean.


Er ... has he added a '0' by accident?

Perhaps he meant £72.50? I wonder if it is still on it's original 1982 tyres...

In news: snipped-for-privacy@4ax.com, Lenny decided to enlighten our sheltered souls with a rant as follows

£7000 over the odds if you ask me.

It's a Princess Consort - they're always overpriced.

It was somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the drugs began to take hold. I remember Andy Dingley saying something like:

Q. How do you get to shag a Princess?

A. Stick your dick up the exhaust pipe.

Is that with the vinyl roof that was so popular on many upmarket models during that period?

I'll check my ticket later tonight.

The odometer displays 15500 miles... Honestly. Something has never been used, yet everything is totally original. A Priceless Princess!
