I wouldn't mind it for stupid value.
But even at that price I would kill it with the commute.

A freind of mine who is a bit mental (spends much time in a special ward for
long periods no joke) has a Citroen DS.
He spent years restoring it at a absolutely total rebuild cost of over 70k.
Thats not a typo. Hese a bit extreme...
Now you know hes lost the plot?
Its perfect. As new. He even got michelin to restart a production line for
the original oem tyres at silly money. And the same for the front and rear
screens. Now hes doing a mechsersmit (spelling?) 3 wheeler, and a bmw 3
wheeler...

He's bullshitting you. The correct Mich tyres are available off the
shelf, mainly, although Mich do produce 'em in batches. The glass is
easy to get.

Well, well, well... The thick plottens.

That car was being given away to a good home a couple of months ago.
At that stage, it had a single-digit registration plate on it...

Hmmm, in which case, I'd be more than a little concerned that the car
never went near an MOT testing station.....
