Sorry if this is a repost but what a shame to see HK's old Cedric being broken for parts after the fairly minor bump.

That's one of the most depressing things I've seen in a long time. I know the lad had a total breakdown but what a shame to see him bin that thing. Even with the damage that must be one of the straightest examples in the world and now it's gonna end up as bean cans, or going round an oval.  Very sad.

Looks like a decent honest example

...If you can see past the over-the-top advert full of BS, it's only an £850 Rover!

That was along time ago. The last MOT has run out. I do not think that would be a pass now.

Some info on so called day time MOTs

All are "dated", nothing recent.

Ideal if you have no friends.

Indeed, I should forget my Citroen Ami dreams and get one of these instead 😅

The Midgets with a cab have 1.5 seats if you have a smoll friend

Very sad to see, I agree. Totting up the prices they are asking, for all the parts they have for sale from poor Cedric, it comes to £5215. Not sure what the car is worth as a complete unit.

The only encouragement people should have been giving him here is to seek help rather than to pander to his delusions!

Nothing has changed, still legal, expect to get pulled regularly and be asked to explain.

BTW a "Daytime MOT" isn't a thing its just an MOT, it's up to the testers discretion if they add an advisory to the effect that the lights were removed/ blanked whatever at the time of testing.

The manual Midgets all have 1 seat, the automatics have 1.5. The reason for this is that the automatics are column shift, but the manual shifter is mounted where the half seat is on an auto.

I've been tempted by one myself!
