Russ' old one. I'd buy that back again tomorrow ... but not for £3 000. I sold it for £1 600 and all that's happened to it is another MOT and the windows refitted. I wish I'd never sold it! It's on my ebay watch list. Anyone want a drum brake Dyane? Is the dyane the cote d azur? What you asking for it? Year, mot, pics etc. Not the Cote, no. It's a 1976 drum braker in a seventies-tastic shade of beige with a lovely brown interior. I'd stick a new MOT on it, but it's MOT's till May. It might be for sale if someone makes me the right offer, but I won't be opening the bidding for the Ami at £1400 more than I sold it for!

Russ' old one. Booooo, no more Ricard service  It was a lot cooler when it was a van. Still a good looking car though. Yup. Shame really. I don't know where people get the cheek to add 1k to a car that, from what I can see, is in a slightly worse condition to when you and Russ had it? Maybe add a couple of hundred quid if they'd done a bit of work on it and kept it looking like it did, but they still seem to be using the work you did (two years ago now?) as a selling point?

And all I did was make it roadworthy by changing the gearbox and tidying up some loose ends under the bonnet. Effectively, what he's saying is "Ami for sale. Has working gearbox".  Like you say, if he'd spent a grand tidying up the bodywork I could understand the price increase.

 Re: Leboncoin/eBay finds
It looks almost exactly like it did when I bought it. I paid a grand. I wouldn't want it back though, bin there, dun that, although I'd happily break it for its engine and stereo. That engine went like a cut cat.

 Re: Leboncoin/eBay finds
I wouldn't buy it back, but that doesn't mean I'm glad I sold it. I agree about the engine, I've never been dragged along by a better one.

 Re: Leboncoin/eBay finds
Client told me today that he had seen my Dyane on Leboncoin so rushed home - on first sight it does look like it (thought it was another scam) http://www.leboncoin.fr/voitures/419811700.htm?ca=4_s

 Re: Leboncoin/eBay finds
Maybe he meant to put £10. £100 for a shagged roof ...
