Saturday trip to the auctions saw this go for £300.  Found in the back of a barn located at a property that the auctions had been called in to clear.  To their credit they didn't once refer to it as a  'Barn Find'

 

 

This 1275 Metro Chairman went for £185

What was up with the metro for it to be so cheap? Id have thought it would have been worth bit more.

It has an upstairs. Your typical Metro buyer is elderly and looking for a bungalow car.

That Moped was just like the one I had when I was 16, a MS50D if I remember correct. I think I paid £60 in 1975.
