Great condition for age!

Great condition interior, clean upholstery, immaculate carpets.

No mods except speakers in parcel shelf.

83605 miles

Have owned it since 2002, bought it from the old couple who had it from new.

12 months MOT (up to end of May 08), tax to 07/07.
Currently kept off road in Leicester.

£150

More details and photos if anyone's interested...

Wow. That looks a lovely car. Seems the pictures arn't linking properly, but I cut and pasted a few of the pics, damn... don't need any more

Good luck with the sale.

Thank you. I've rehosted the photos now too.

That car is awesome! We're contemplating buying an F-plate 340 we've spotted for £100 (a Nessy clone, if case anyone is curious....for use while Nessy is being tidyied), but that is far more tempting.

cheers

Looks like a damn nice car that... any rust?

Posted: **10 Jun 2007 08:02 pm**

Hardly any rust considering its age.

There's a couple of spots around the body like this (this is the worst patch)

This crazed paint is below the windscreen on the drivers side

Nothing on the door sills

3 of the wheel arches have a rusty corner like this

This patch behind the rear bumper but the rest looks fine to me underneath

I don't think there's any more...

12 months MOT and almost no rust worth mentioning, £150 is an absolute steal.
Trying to haggle at this price is just taking the mick (sorry redline
