Re: Best Bargain

Back in the 60s I bought a car. It cost me 30 bob. It came complete with a tin with a bit of wire and two pieces of silver paper (it had no ignition key and you had to short the ignition to start it). The gear stick had to be held in with your knee as you drove, and it did help if you started it facing downhill with a strong following wind. Ran it for 3 weeks, sold it for parts to someone who had similar model (probably model T Ford) for 5 quid! Before the days of MOTs of course.

Never had such a bargain since! - mind you, it was difficult to get it to go beyond 20 mph.
