Lot’s of 1980s (potential) classics for sale from one underground car park collection! Cars have been parked in this garage for 16 years, dry. !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!! . Lots of Merc w123, BMW E30, Citroën CX versions and some others as well. I spotted a Peugeot 505, an Alfa, a few RWD Opels, a Ford Taunus and a BMW e21. Had I been a better wrencher with a barn I’d be very tempted!
!!! UNKNOWN CONTENT TYPE !!!
This guy knew what to pick. The w123, e30 and CX are all appreciating cars with a loyal following.

Dude. From all those cars that’s (to me) the least desirable of the bunch. Combined with that other Opel.
How’s it going with your time management? Have things settled down a bit?

This Renault 9 (phase 3) doesn’t even have its own picture.

You can have it. I count at least 8 CXs, so that leaves at least 7 for me.

But this is a wagon!
I think.

You’re right, it does seem to be a wagon. There’s another CX wagon though, with some rust. See the first picture.

That sounds nasty and like a lot of work. Not needing a new engine does seem to be financially beneficial though.

I want that E12.

I6? Those should be easy enough to replace as long as the threads in the head haven’t stripped out or something.

V6 Piece of shit. The new one has the 4.0 thankfully

Am I the only one that really just wants the underground car park?
![]() 05/21/2015 at 11:52 |
|
Why not both? I really like the cars though.

As do I. I also like evil, nefarious plans. Which is why I want, nay need, an underground lair/car park.

All these CXs you keep sharing every week only increase my wants. That Ascona could make a pretty cool looking vintage racer. And why do I want that Taunus? It looks like an 80’s Datsun, but it’s a Ford! WHY?

And not just a 80s Ford, it’s a RWD 79-82 model. One could argue it’s the direct ancestor of the current Mondeo/Fusion. But would you believe me if I tell you I was actually looking for a green w124 Mercedes wagon when I found this ad? Seeing all the other cars (I lust after CXs and actually own an E30 Touring) I just had to post it here.

I don’t believe you were looking for anything. You specifically found this to taunt 505 and I. ;) Did you find the wagon you were after?

I’m taunting myself here. I’m the one here who’s within an hour or two of these cars, yet my hands are tied.
I didn’t find the Merc I was looking for. A green on green manual transmission low option Merc 1990 or older w124 wagon in decent condition is hard to find. I found one recently, but it was sold before I could act. This Merc would be for 505 by the way.

I wondered that, because I knew about your 325iT. The search continues.
I just wish there were stashes of super cheap, interesting, but not that old cars around here, but even beater E21s are $2500, and we certainly never got Citroens & the like.

Nice stash. Nothing really valuable but still not a single car that I wouldn’t want to own. A rust free CX would be really awesome to have.
I used to have really awful one. It had rust and it had been broken into. The passenger’s door has permanently jammed open and some dashboard pieces had been stolen. Several liters of squirrel poop was found from the glove box. Yes, this wasn’t a joke. There truly was several metric liters of real poop.
