Best 20-plus year old cars on the market?

That's what I've always said.....

Prices have been all over the shop for a while now, with cheap examples drying up.

A couple of years ago my brother got a 2.3LPT auto, 285,000 on the clock and one former owner, for around £600. In general, I think cars with MOTs have gone up in value a bit at the very bottom of the scale

Wished I hadn't looked at this now

Looks lovely, but why not put an MOT on it?

Do they know something like the jacking point and battery tray is rotten? If I wanted it for £1500 I'd want it with an MOT.

I find it funny why Volvo never colour coded the trims under the headlights. I had a 1986 GLE and as body was silver matched! Even bumper black look better.

Well, I won't be selling my 940.

As I walked Tigger around the village in the dark tonight an Aston Martin pulled up next to us and parked and made all sorts of wonderful high tech noises as it switched off. I said loudly to Tigger 'I'd STILL rather have my old 940!'

It will spend more time on the back of a recovery lorry than on the road!

The Aston of course!

Either that or the bodyshop being repaired after owners "take the scenic route" when they shouldn't!
