Isetta 600 for sale

[Bob Purton]

The seller is right, they do not often come up for sale but this one sounds like a big project to me ! I notice that its in Polegate, has Mr Dobie been keeping this from us? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/VERY-RARE-1959-BMW-ISETTA-600-BUBBLECAR-MICROCAR-RARE_W0QQitemZ180411024033QQcmdZViewItemQQptZAutomobiles_UK?hash=item2a0155c2a1&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14

Hi Bob
           This car belongs to Trevour Lowis, he was goung to bring it along to the RUM car weekend but his wife was ill, he was building it up and has bought a lot of parts for it over the 10+ years since he owned it - you have not seen it how can you say its a right heap!!!, keep your opinions to yourself and do not comment on other owners cars.
                                                                                                                                                                  Mike

Fair enough Mike. I accept the slap on the wrist and will make an appropriate edit . You are right, I haven't seen it but to be fair Mike he certainly goes into a lot of detail as to all the work needed. Personally I like to buy my microcars as heaps, e.g. Inter number 1. heap when bought, messerschmitt very big heap when bought, Inter number two equally big heap when bought. That's how I like my projects. If I had the spare cash I would try and buy the 600, Heap or not. Will we see you at Battlesbridge on Sunday Mike?

Hi Bob
              Point taken, But Trevour is being honest about his car and not misleading people who think it's a weekends work to get it back on the road - Incidentally they only imported in the low 20's into this country and it's one of those cars with it's original number - they are very rare especially the European versions ( no big cow catcher bumpers) and I hope it goes to someone who will restore it to its former glory - No I cannot make Sunday as I am busy preparing to go to the Mannheim autojumble in two weeks time - have a good day.
                                                                                                                                    Mike

No, not me. Now I'm an OAP I've given up all that restoration malarkey.

Hi Rob , maybe you can still be involved with restoring but in an advisory capacity?
