... 1987 (so only 7 years to becoming an historic vehicle if that interests you), GLT, 126,000 miles, has been recommissioned (quite well according to the write up), a couple of small jobs to do (you will need something to do on a 30-odd year old motor car), well under 5 grand. It looks really nice... I can't see much not to like.

Good fortune.

PS. I'm happy to concede I was a bit wrong about this car - it is hiding a few secrets that I didn't spot.
... people might remember discussing this one some few days ago, and concluding it was a mish-mash of bits and not very original GTL at all. Well, in the meantime the eBay ad was marked as sold, but strangely it was not taken down - I had a feeling we had not seen the last of it.

Now the seller claims the motor car was sold to his brother, who now suddenly cannot afford it (sounds like there is little brotherly love there - of perhaps it was just a **** and bull story all along).

I'm not sure about the seller's motive, but this episode would just come across as daft to a prospective buyer. It sounds like the seller is trying to drum up a bit of interest. Ho hum... not such a good motor car.
