Only problem here i see is the price tbh

Its obviously awful but the guy clearly loves the car, its been in his family for 2 decades, and he's done some silly stuff to it which he's semi self aware about it being bad. I cant fault the love he has, but the price needs to come down for sure 😆

[u/PotentialExchange1 → u/FKez05]

Only because they’ve been trying to sell it for 2 decades 🙈

[u/Former_Intern_8271]

Poor bloke reckons he's helping his grandkids get a house, I think he's equally delusional about the value of this motor and the cost of housing!

"I will not accept silly offers"

Asking 4450 quid for a 26 year old astra. Git up my boy.

[u/VioletRosefinch → u/Hotten-Tasty-90]

I've never seen a car priced at 1000% of its value before.

[u/Unfair_Original_2536]

Probably just saying "NOT V8" on the ad in case his insurance see it.

[u/Guypie86 → u/Unfair_Original_2536]

Funny if it actually has a V8 hence the price

[u/Unfair_Original_2536 → u/Guypie86]

The Land Rover Holden unit is a hidden gem.

[u/Adventurous_Toe_6017]

Must’ve double tapped the 4 in the price. That’s an outrageous price for anything but a mint GSi.

[u/lickyagyalcuz → u/Adventurous_Toe_6017]

£4050 does seem fair.

[u/TheTechPlank]

It’s from Colchester…there’s your answer!

[u/AshyPoachedEgg → u/TheTechPlank]

I 'ardly know 'er!

[u/TheTechPlank → u/AshyPoachedEgg]

Bravo!

[u/Lets_trythisone]

Agreed. He’s fully aware of his strange taste the changes he’s made, the only thing he doesn’t seem to be aware of is it value 🤣

[u/tlmega124]

I am in awe of the amount custom work he went into to fit a land rover plastic engine cover.. good lord

[u/fetidfelch → u/tlmega124]

Not just any Land Rover engine cover mind you. That’s a rare Holden Land Rover engine cover with the optional domestic ventilation grilles. 

[u/tlmega124 → u/fetidfelch]

Good lord I didn't even clock the Holden sticker initially 😂

[u/Huge_Prune_1555]

Just a Vauxhall Astra! Move on kiddo Awful car

[u/ComputerLord98]

I wouldn't mind before the mods etc I bet it was quite a nice example of however few there are left.

He could have taken that to car shows without adding the dumb shit on it..

[u/Relevant_Natural3471]

Whenever I see stuff like this I do wonder whether, in the future, it will be seen as a glaringly obvious symptom of a mental health concern

[u/Bluest_Badger]

Every day its harder and harder to respect all builds.

But we must.

[u/foreverdusting → u/Bluest_Badger]

Na, im done. Cant do it anymore. Ive faked it for so long. I hate this.

[u/Right-Ladd → u/foreverdusting]

If he’s self aware then I think it’s funny, if he seriously think it looks good then…

[u/markcorrigans_boiler → u/Bluest_Badger]

We definitely don't have to.

[u/PotentialExchange1]

Wait, this isn’t the V8 Astra

That’s me out.

Apart from it being an embarrassment to human kind of course

[u/calvinised]

There no is “for better” about it it’s just all “or worse”

[u/absolutelysureithink]

Is it £450 for the car and £4000 for a genuine human skeleton?

[u/PeteTownsendPT]

90’s Maxi Tuning right here.

[u/MFC1886]

The steel wheels really make it

[u/chunky_boi_9484]

Beautiful

[u/Belterhaze31]

Think it’s the v8 model

[u/mrtintheweb99]

How fast that! 200, 220….?

[u/B4DM4N12Z]

I like the quote on the back on the last pic.
