Off Topic Scrap Marbella in Cranbrook, Exeter

[AndyPanda4x4]

Last week I'd been browsing eBay looking for random old scrappers and came across this auction for a Lada Samara...

I know you ask why would I be looking at this, but anyway I noticed in the top left of the picture there appeared to be the back end of a Panda. So I dropped a message to the seller and he very briefly replied back saying it's a Marbella and it's still intact in the yard. I messaged a couple more times asking for details but had no response. I though it may be of interest if anyone is close, it's in Cranbrook, Exeter.

Browsing through his other auctions there look to be some right relics for spares including a 126!

No mate I was looking through all of his scrappers stock! There's some right classics in there!

Fortunately we have an excellent man on the ground in this county - if further investigation on behalf of anyone interested is needed. JamieK ...?

I got excited for a minute at the prospect of a Marbella in a scrappie near me!

Sadly though it seams that Hawkhurst salvage is about 20 miles north of Hastings

if anyone is getting any bits from this marbella, i would like the engine bay sound proofing... if it is the plastic.. not the fabric type.
