I bought it from a chap in Grantham for £950, bit of a bargain even with the niggles.

Was being advertised using the same pics, but owner in Lincs ... He had it up for £1000, so either there's something wrong with it, or the purple was simply too much for him !

Yup, that's the chap from Grantham. His missus bought it and decided it was too slow, with them moving house too he needed to sell quick. As I've said there's a fair few niggles but nothing that can't be sorted with a bit of time and effort.

Certainly nothing insurmountable there, look forward to how it develops:)

Ok, maybe clown is a bit harsh but it does make me laugh every time I look at it :trampoline:

Interesting problem this morning, I pushed the button to lower the window about 3" which was fine then it wouldn't go back up. Just had the doorcard off and it's all fine now.

Don't you just love MG-Rovers! :D

Randomness, love it, I used the wash wipe this morning, normally you get 5 wipes + 1 after an interval, the wipers wouldn't stop until I switched the ignition off, opened and closed the drivers door.:laugh:

Love it! :bounce:

That just reminded me as well, I lifted my wiper away from the windscreen this morning to scrap off the condensation and the blade fell to pieces. Another niggle to fix!

On the plus side bits have started arriving at home to start fixing and tinkering with her and I've managed to knock £70 off the price of some brand new KW V1 coilovers, whoop!
