Is this a fair price ?

I've had the Scooby a year and I really have loved it but in a quest to own all the cars I've ever wanted she has to go.

Whilst I save up the next car I REALLY want ive found an interim car that ive always wanted.

A little Mgtf. I always found them much prettier than an mx5.
Its a 2002 Its done 47k from new but it hasn't done a great deal in the last couple of years. I don't think its done 50 miles since the last mot. One middle aged owner but the son had the use (abuse) of it for the last three years.

It has a few spots of rust and is generally unloved. It had the belts and Hg done two years ago by an ex Mgr main dealer.

The soft top rear window has a tear but the roof is good and has nearly always been used with the hard top.

It will need tyres.

Today I blew the tyres up and jumped the flat battery, checked all the fluids and took the top of and had a spin. I had it running for around an hour with no problems.

Ive agreed a price of £600 what do you think cheap, fair, Money Pit




Soon to be back in an mg

£600 seems a fair price.

Hmm I like the idea of loosing the roof and making the car even cheaper.

My 03 TF 160 was a lot more than that, so I'd say a bargain.

Hardtop and wheels will give you the buying price back!!!

Can get new plastic windows that you can put in the hood, or up grade to a glass rear window.

Fun little cars.
