I think the phrase that comes to mind is 'just because you can doesn't mean you should'. Would it be this one? I like the stance but would be better with the allegro engine (1750)rather ...

Re: Tales from the banger auction. 1980s style.

I bought a series 2 xj6 from Portsmouth car auctions for 300 quid, picked it up Friday lunchtime, went to the petrol station to fill up, put 11 gallons in the port tank, then started filling up the starboard one. Fuel gushing round my feet, looked under and there was no plug /fuel line at the bottom...

The Ginetta I bought off some geezer in Reading for an outrageous 900 quid, it had a wheezy 2 litre pinto and cortina underpinnings.
