Nothing shady Mr Officer!!

Was bought from surrey for £150, guy just wanted it to go to a good home. Tbf he had just bought a brand new Nissan GT-R.

Plotted up at my mates the other side of town, he's had it a couple of weeks but (and I won't go into much detail) its more economic for him to run his 1.6 45.

Passed the last MOT with just an advisory for front pads wearing thin.

Doesn't need much to get it back on the road, front pads which come with the car, ABS sensor which also comes with it. New battery as that one is pancaked.

Also it'll need 4 new tyres but I think once the summer shows are out the way i'll stash the MK2 and have the 11's off it and put them on the MK1 and leave the MK2 stored on the straights then it doesn't matter if the tyres go off. That leaves me to source another set of 11's with no rush.

Its not so much a project as my time, money and effort will be getting the Mk2 back to mint but maybe the odd little thing here and there.

Tbh for £200 its a worthy investment. Either as a whole or as a breaker but that will be a last resort if the Mot comes back with bad news.

Don't worry Sam, hardened to the facebook lot lol. I only wanted the stuff off it I know will sell quick and make good money. The funny thing is i've had it advertised across as many facebook selling pages as I could find for MGRover for at least two weeks if not more, constantly bumping them every day, still get people saying 'oh I would have had this or that'. Well you had your chance so now if tuff.

I'm not a breaker, I don't really have anywhere to store much stuff and this was all done in the car park round the back of my mates flat so was limited by time. Lucky his neighbours were all really nice.
