Still looking for a 164...........
.............and still not found the right car!
Having looked at the two or three that have come up in recent weeks, plus wandered down the path that might even yet lead to a good 144 or 244, I'm still looking out for a 'perfect' 164. That isn't 'perfect' as in concours, what I mean is perfect for me! The ideal is a driveable car with an MoT, sound bodywork and mechanicals with not too much to do in the way of bodywork - I haven't the facility or ability to emulate John H in his superlative efforts! Seized brakes, tired interior, engine in need of a service and fettle - all welcomed. Victims of particularly savage tin-worms sadly are beyond my limited means. So if you've a much-loved but unused 164 hidden in your garage, and would like it to go to a good home for re-commissioning, lots of TLC, a genteel retirement and the occasional VOC outing then please let me know. 164 / E / TE, manual or auto, colour unimportant, all cars considered. As for price, well, 'Practical Classics' have 164s at £300 for Condition 3, £800 for Condition 2, and £1750 for Condition 1. That august publication is my guide in this! I know that a concours example would fetch maybe up to double the Condition 1 price, but that's not what I'm after. I'm based 'oop north' but am happy to travel to meet that special someone! Having slightly more than 30-up - years and posts - I can be contacted via the forum PM service! Cheers Jack Last edited by capt jack; Mar 30th, 2010 at 21:31. |
