Daf 33 for sale on fleabay
Spotted this on fleabay - needs new clutch shoes (avaliable through the owners club or www.dafhobby.nl) and will need the engine put back in
the bodywork looks ok but I betcha the sills will need a weld (the windscreen seal goes and water comes in and pools in the fron corners) I reckon it will go for about £150 - spend £300 on the repairs and you'd have yourself a rare and cheap classic runabout the 33 is a total hoot to drive you get loads of smiles and it's always amusing to see the faces of other drivers as your Variomatic system beats them off traffic lights (well for the first 20 meters anyway!) Anyway this will need saving http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/DAF-33-1974_W0...d=p3286.c0.m14 |

You are to harsh and out of order with the wording of your post. If you do not like a car, then fine, express that fact, but don't personaly have a go at the oppinions of others.
Crap may be crap, but to some people such as farmers, or gardeners, it is usefull. Nobody has the right to decry the oppinion of somebody else. I personally don't like vintage cars, but I can appreciate the the feelings of those that do. Ian. |

Certainly not crap, very well engineered cars in fact, I've had a few and with innovative technology for the time they certainly look like classics to me, why do you think Volvo bought them!
I've had classic Austin, Morris, MG, Porsche, Jaguars, Mercedes, BMW, Daimlers, Volvo, Cadillac amongst 30 other marques, with all the cars I've had I appreciate their good points, their innovation and their inadaquacies but go to the Netherlands and tell the people there that DAFs were not classics and crap to boot and you will be faced with an arguement or two! Contemporary road yests were really very complementary as well so I don't know where you get all that from. BTW, Automan wasn't saying the DAF was a vintage car, he was saying that although he doesn't like Vintage cars (build between 1919 and 1930) but he can understand those that do |
DAFs are classic cars as they were the pioneers of CVT, a system which is still being used to great effect in certain cars today.
