That's choice man.

Just how rotten is it? Looks at though it could be a bit on the dodgey side.

Regardless, it fucking looks magic.

Edit: Fuck, the more I look, the more I like. Hubcaps are pimpin' bodylines are an awesome combination of round and square.

What's the interior like?

The rust looks pretty cosmetic - heaps of bottom of guards/doors etc and a little bit in the driver's A-pillar. There's a spare better tail gate inside it. The seats are pretty much wet which is a bit of a worry.

Edit: Apparently it has like 8 spare spats for the rear wheels :lol: But I think I prefer it with them off.

Cam told me it's more hardcone to call it a 'break' instead of 'estate'.

I think he means a 'Shooting Brake' a phrase well worth the google.

These (but only as a wagon) are without doubt my fav frenchie - I have considered buying one myself but could not quite come up with a convincing justification for my missus who has some pretty fucked ideas about appropriate cars.

Na, French call them break (eak) and familiale and safari. 'Break' is in heaps of parts catalogues etc among other things. I'm not 100% sure what each one means. Shooting brakes are 3-door, aren't they? Probably same etymology though.
