Wonder why he is selling when its only the handbrake cable and tyres? :-/

Cheap enough though, i'll keep my eye on it.

Infact it could be an OOF banger rally car!

Not sure how to get it home :-/ - Trailer is not an option (cost), its such a crap advert can't even tell if its a manual or not!

Are you allowed to tow a car on a motorway? :-/

Fairly certain you're not...

Marks DTM Calib · 02 January 2007, 20:23:17

Yes you can......a towed car is classed as a braked trailer and hence requires no insurane (its covered 3rd party by the towing car), no tax and no MOT....if its an auto then its simply a case of removing the rubber donut from the prop at the diff end.

Where is hotel21 when you need him.

The problem is you need a valid MOT to get Tax, so how that will be seen in the eyes of the law regarding a car you just bought. And planning to self fix, i assume they still say the same regarding tax.
