This was slightly over budget at £225, couple of months mot. I've loaned it out to two friends - semi long term! I've MOT'd it now. Needed a couple of part worn tyres, two small brake pipes..... and something else I can't remember. It's a keeper for the time being as a back up - spare car - loaner - etc

Looks a lovely little motor

Spotted this on gumtree. Phone won’t copy the link from the app to here. Seems pretty reasonable... maybe one for @Kiltox

Says £200 for me?

Looks like they have changed the advert as it was definitely 100 quid when I posted it.

Correct. I checked five mins after you posted originally and it was £100. Advert now says £200

D'you know what, I would actually put in a bid on that if I thought the sale would be honoured!

It's in the toy section on ebay (not vehicles) I would suggest you are going to get a matchbox special.

Can imagine this turning up at the sortation hub with a 1st class stamp on it... “Gonna have a bit of trouble getting through the letter box”

Yes, I spotted that too.  Matchbox don't make one of these, lol, and don't the pics form part of the description?  Isn't he therefore legally required to sell me the van as shown?  Assuming I win of course.  Please, don't anyone bid!

@Wingz123 stand by for collection please!

Rather cheap R50 on Gumtree.  Long MOT although driving it away with no clutch could be challenging.  Get it collected and pop a clutch in and enjoy!  (Reality unlikely to be quite that simple)

@outlaw118 weren’t you looking for a cheap Mini???

I would so roll this for six ponies.  And cleverly you don’t need to MOT it under CoronaConfusion rules so even though it is probably a death trap the government think sitting inside this is safer than being “out there”.  Delicious pre facelift povo 1.1 spec, I can’t see any reason why this wouldn’t become a forum star or the primary reason for bagging a supermodel next time you are in Lidl.

Good tyres all round apparently so bear that in mind if you were looking for octagonal tyres.  Fuck it, we’ll all be dead soon and nobody in their final moments ever regretted owning a Rover 200 in base spec.  I can’t verify this of course.

MoT expired 3rd March 2020. Only vehicles with a MoT on 30th March onwards get them extended 6-months on a rolling day-by-day basis whilst the current situation continues. There is no such thing as an amnesty for non-MoT bangers - wonder where that nugget of info surfaced from? But its still cheap enough - and you could soon be the only person left alive so then you would not need a MoT.

Sorry I bid without reading this far. I'll try and retract it.

Edit. It won't let me ffs.

Nah, don't worry.  It was no more than an impulse, I have no real idea what I would have done with it anyway.  You go for it, and good luck!  Thanks for at least trying.

Drop it off here on the way home and I'll cover your train fares ;)

I am hoping to see this, or the photos of vehicle that end up being delivered instead

Flip, this has to be of interest on here.  An MOT’d Puma for £200!

Remember that Steve McQueen advert when these came out? I am pretty sure driving this through Romford on the way home listening to the Bullitt soundtrack will be just like that.

Florin is flogging off a Mazda Demio automatic.  This could be a handy tip running boot selling tool provided you aren’t trying to sell or dump any significant quantities of stuff.  He mentions a Sam noise, I like to think it’s a Sam L Jackson noise and every time you come to a corner the car calls you a muthafucker
