Italian car anyone?

oth look very nice, but I'm somehow drawn to the second one as being more within my abilities and won't sit clogging up the drive.

Shame I can't have another one, and still have to shift the Saab.

I disagree with you. This applies well to the car that is well known in the UK and everybody has had some exposure to them.

You haven't seen that car on the road let alone driven one or heard any reviews or opinions.

I reckon it was probably a really good hot hatch with a legendary engine. Shame there was no 4x4 gubbins but people could afford it because of this. Like the Focus RS et al but way ahead of its time. Quite closely related to my old Dedra turbo which was well fast and handled quite well but the Nuova Delta with its lighter weight and, shorter rear overhang plus less comfort biased suspension so would've handled really well for a FWD car. I reckon its closest cousin was the Alfa 145 cloverleaf.

How much? I'm getting sick of the Volvo and it's lack of go for 25mpg...

P6B is the one with the v8, aka P6 "Buick".

And yes, you can bolt all sorts of interesting things onto it or quite easily replace the whole thing with a TVR 5 litre one, as the block is basically the same.

Mmm... nice...

Yeah, they're a wierd construction - sort of a spaceframe with removable panels hung on it.

Nice.....

Yep, the original Rover 3.5 (AKA Buick) was used in the P6 with the rope crank seal.

Makes you think inspector morse should be driving one doesn't it.

Don't know yet.

And on the Saab you will get loads of go for between 25-30MPG. Closer to=20

I offered it Pete M for the =A3600 he had, but for that I'm taking out the= =20 CD player.

He drove it, he liked it, but that damned TT Sierra estate came along=20 and buggered up my plans. Doh.

The car is advertised in other places for =A31200, but because I know you.

I don't currently have £600 to my name. There's about £2 in my wallet at the minute. Depends if you've still got it in a few weeks. Any pictures so I can work out whether I want to be going out drinking or not?

Looks pretty tidy. Where's that lacquer you said was on the way out (other side :D)?

Was just about to ask that. Owt else done that might bother the insurance bods? (Googles. Thinks LV might be a better bet than NU.) Anyone know what you get back when you cancel a policy?

And is the boot on a 900 so big that I can get an MTB in (with the wheels off) without folding the seats?

In article , snipped-for-privacy@spamtroNspidar.com spouted forth into uk.rec.cars.modifications...

Wheels off with out folding the seat, or wheels on if you do fold.

Might even get lucky and get it in with the wheels on if you lift off the shelf and the seat up. the missus could comfortabley lie in it with the seat up, if she curled a little, and when we had to replace the telly, with the seat down we comfortably got a 28" TV in without any trouble in the box, and probably had enough room to do a months shop.

Excellent. MTB currently goes in the Volvo with the seats down and wheels on, but then I don't really give a flying f*ck about the interior of my £100 wonder :D.

or this one:
