Fantastic rover 200 cabriolet for sale at an incredible £300 ono


Recommended Posts

Since moving to Bexhill about 5 years ago I've seen this lovely metallic red rover 200 cabriolet parked up in one of the better parts of the town and have always wanted it and now it's come up for sale as I imagine the elderly driver has given up driving.

The problem being I don't have the money to buy it or space so I know how everybody on here loves an early 200 so I thought I would put some pictures up which I took half hour ago.

It's got a lovely beige interior and has only done 80000

I really hope a Rover lover off here gets it the bodywork is fantastic condition with a small bit of lacquer peel on the back wing and the arches etc are in fantastic shape.

And the hood and rear window look good as well.post-9282-0-82567800-1473769591_thumb.jpeg

Mot history doesn't look bad either as it's not a rot box

Love that, red roof is the icing on the cake.

This car is made for mr wobbler..

It's parked up just off the town centre so if anyone wanted it I wouldn't mind picking them up from the station.

 

This car has nothing to do with me but I really want it to go too a good home as it really does deserve it

Mr Dollywobbler does not need this car, attractive as it is.

 

 

The gap between "needing" and "buying" any car is one of indeterminate length...........'specially on 'ere..................

Do the decent thing and give it a test drive and feedback rather than someone travel up for a bag of shite

That looks a bargain, which engine?

 

It does look to good to miss, vince 70 could you give it a drive for me/us?

 

If it is any good and you want to borrow it for a bit I will buy it and tax it. I can add it to my insurance so it shows as insured but you would need your own 3rd party insurance as mine will not cover you.

I'm afraid I just don't have the room for anymore motors.. My neighbours have started calling me Bexhill motors which is quite funny as that's the local independent secondhand car dealer around this way and going by the plates that's who sold the car a few years ago.

The reg looks like a Kent registration so it hasn't travelled far to end up in East Sussex if you want to phone the owner up though I don't mind looking over it and giving it a quick drive around the block but I'm no mechanic but obviously I will check for the dreaded Mayo for you.

But it's got to be worth having as it has a rear spoiler lol.

I was just thinking short term so you could have a bit of fun before handing it over to me. Never mind I can just catch a train and park it in a free lay-by near me!

It's only a 5 minute walk from Bexhill station but I can pick you up from there if you wish.

It would be good to meet up if the timings work out, but I can always walk if needed.

This would make a gr10 club car. Few people chip in and take turns on the few days of summer we have.

 

10/10 would time share.

No reply from the seller, so I have left a message on the answer machine.

That's a MEGABARG

Looks in even better nick than mine which isn't half bad for the £275 it cost

It will more than likely be a Kettle on an R reg, mine is

That's got I'll take 175 written all over it and I wouldn't feel embarrassed offering it

Wow that's lovely, fancied a Rover Cab when I ended up with the 924 as they're so so cheap even for a good spec and low mileage, but the Mrs thought they looked terrible and didn't realise she was wrong.

 

Surely the most underrated R8.

It looks like an autoshiter is going to have the car once he's spoken to the seller..

I would say the spoiler is factory fitted as it looks like it's in a posh trim level.

Blimey, £250 would buy that!! Looks lovely and a long ticket!  Well bought Ken !
