EBay Finds

Nope, gold ingots only.

Are the ingots made into wall tiles to provide accent to a second hand bathroom suite ?

The only one of these I recall ever seeing is Uncle Frank’s. I was dissapointed not to get a ride because it was broken, just like his £700 DB5 that we tried later that day. The paint looks a bit “Humbrol enamel” but the ad says it is in daily use which makes the £7k seem a bargain compared to the usual £5k AS projects. Hard not to want a car called um-tum-tiddeley…

One of my uncles had one of those, lovely looking thing isn't it!

That is a particularly rare example - most Sapphires were "Six-Light" meaning three side windows each side whereas that is one of a couple of hundred or so made with the "Four-Light" window configuration. Yeah the paintwork is a bit "surprising" - looks like it was left over after doing the garages....

Seems an odd place to advertise it - I always think of Gumtree as being for Corsas with neon underbody lighting.

Agreed, not my first port of call for a 1950s quality sports saloon. Ol' Green'un has some history too.....

That caravan looks like the one at Gaydon with a bath under the floor.

[mercrocker]

Pretty sure that is a Winchester like that in Gaydon, maybe a little newer but they didn't change too much over the years.

[AMCrebel]

Aye - similar but the one at Gaydon has the Clerestory roof -

There are some quirky things lurking in the Others section, £1,600.
