FOR SALE: £100 DT (T&T)

[procta]

I seen this happen once on one of the metro forums I used to use years ago.  One was saved from been scrapped, after the owner died, He had put a lot of time and effort into restoring and putting little OEM lux detailing into the car, sadly he didn't get the chance to enjoy the car, as he died before really getting the chance to put an mot on it.
One of the admin managed to save the car out of his own pocket, but sold it on with in a month, not sure if he did anything to it. There was holy hell about it, as many kicked off about it, as the next owner was going to drop a vvc engine into it, Mind the shell had a heavy restoration and paint job so it was one of the best shells out there!
It got vvcd and that owner enjoyed it for the length of time he had it,
The engine he dropped in was from a lotus elise, showed how much he cared for the car, as he got the head ported and polished!  Not many get that treatment I tell you!
He sold the car back on to the admin who kept it in storage for a year, offered it for sale again. A lad from Scotland ended up buying it, to re shell his track car,
But the plan never came to light as it was just stripped for its lux parts and sold on, The engine ended up in my car.
you might say it was bought to be stripped to be fair. But the Engine did put another metro on the road, and that car you all know!
not sure where the shell is now, might have ended up been scrapped,
So really the same thing has happened here, someone bought robs car, enjoyed it. Then offered it for sale, instead of weighing it in, so some one could make use of it. I am sure rob wouldn't mind, as its keeping the cars he loved on the road, and maybe putting another 306 back on the road!  Just like what happened to that metro you all know!
