Looking grand with a clean!

 

It drives really nicely as well.

 

It even has its roof cover that they were delivered new with!

You really don't want to flog it, do you? Offering a floppy top at the dog-end of November!

You are correct, my friend has a blue one and I thought it would be fun next year to take the two cars out together.

 

Problem is it is on the drive along with my BMW E30 and E Type next week!

Just juggling them around a bit. You'll get another in.

 

The Cadillac need to go back in and the Gamma is due home in the next few weeks!

build a bigger garage.......or just take over the neighbours drive

I really hope this stays in the AS family - as soon as I have some under cover storage I’ll gladly buy it back.

I'd love this but I've already reached 'driveway shitty limits' (see what I did there?)

Ideal world plan.

 

Sell my C180 immediately - collect this on Friday.

Run Avensis until MOT in May - trade in for unique spec Rover 75 (hunt underway)

 

So if anyone wants my Merc, please speak up!

Does this have an electric roof and how scabby are the scabs , any more close up pictures of the scabs ? Do you ever venture down to Surrey/Sussex way in the Rover?

The hood is manual.

I will take some close up photos of the wheel arches tomorrow.

I have no plans to visit Surrey/Sussex at the moment.

Finally found the listing again.

Is this still available please and is there any movement on the price pretty please

Posted

The scabs are not very scabby at all. That is a lovely looking car.

Posted

If it’s any help, there’s a nigh on identical one on eBay at the moment for £600/offers in London. Auto, black interior and early dash, though.

After a couple of hours with a friends help shuffling my cars in storage we made room for the 216i and I have put it away for the winter now. The plan is to use it in spring and sell it during the summer.

 

I can't remember the winter price I offered it at to avoid trying to store it, only Mrs6C told me off for trying to sell it too cheap!

 

Yes I still have it and it could be passed on.

These are utterly lovely looking things, and the grey suits it nicely.

GLWS when it goes back up!

If anybody wants it I can get it out of storage again.
