Yeah, it was me. I sort of fancy it but current work situation not ideal for any extra cars. 

I've heard people saying that that particular 800 isn't a brilliant example either.

I was unaware Bond had made a facelifted Mk2 version of the 875. I would love to see the legendary Mr Hubnut work his magic on this one.

on a more serious note, what are coventry climax/hillman imp engines like for spares? since rootes/hillmans are bad for spare parts i'm guessing that there isn't much about for an imp, much less for a bond?

Have we had this? 97 825 diesel, with MOT until April for £999

Now that’s what I call grey 1996.

This car has had a reported £60,000 spent on a major restoration..... A significant modification and part of the restoration was removing the running gear and replacing it with a 2.8 Nissan diesel engine and automatic gearbox

Yes, but not in my quoted bit. Beware folks. Still £60k on a reliable daily car that’s done 700miles since seems a little weird.

True, but not as weird as binning a Jaguar XK straight six and chucking in a Diesel truck engine out of a mid-1990s Nissan Patrol FFS.
