Hi guys, I've come across this one yesterday:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/260962214124? ... _996wt_943

and I was wondering if anyone had gone over there to have a look at it in person?

the seller says "surface rust" and that underneath it, the panels are sound, and you can knock on them a fair bit without thinking of going through... unfortunately, I live in France and can't do the knocking myself, so if anyone has seen it already, or lives in the area and feels like doing me a favor, i'd love to hear what you've got to say...
the auction ends tomorrow, which is not far away, unfortunately, so i'm really sorry for this urgent cry for help, but if you feel like getting out of the house for whatever reason :)

thanks a lot!!

The only way I could afford to buy this, and I really want too, is to sell the wife, if everyone could give me 50p I might just manage it.

That, on the face of it, is one interesting car.

hahah, the reason I asked is because I want it myself, not attract competition... But I could use the info, which is why I'm running the risk..
