This is a bit odd - a year-old car being sold as spares or repairs because of some dash lights.  Surely you'd just get it fixed under warranty?

Smells fishy to me.  I wonder if somebody can't afford the PCP payments anymore?

ebay name: musty.

 

I wonder if it has been driven through floodwater and it's knackered the lectrix?

In 1982 there was a What Car? group test that claimed to be of all the car anyone could possibly need, it was 2.0L Granada, Rover 2000 and , I think, a Renault 20 and a Saab 900. It could have been a CX or 505. But you get the idea, big enough, fast enough for everyday use but cheap enough to run.

@NorfolkNWeigh I don’t think they were far off in this statement, the  Granada is a great car but the Rover is now more affordable and not a bad runner up. If it stays cheap get it bought 😀

Looks nice, but not for me I’m afraid. My ideal SD1 would have to be at least a 2600 auto, these days . Funny how getting old changes your perspective, years ago I was always chasing manuals, one of my favourites was a very rusty R reg manual V8 with no PAS ( ex Police) that you almost needed 3 hands to drive when it was cold due to one hand controlling the choke , one wrestling with the stiff gear change and two to turn the wheel! 
In 1992 I bought a 2000 manual , last car through the auction and I’d sold what I arrived in, it was a 4 speed  in Moonraker , paid £80 plus the charges and it drove lovely. Gave it to my Dad as he was gong through a divorce and his only cars at the time ( Spartan Kit car and S1Land Rover, both of which he still has) were too flaky to get around between Kidwelly and Milton Keynes, he kept it for 3 years before trading it in at a classic dealer against a horrible Scimitar GTE.

I absolutely love these... I tried to import an Australian 416i which was basically a Honda Integra with a Rover badge. I think its absolutely criminal they were never put on the Uk market.

Probably end up on a farm in Wiltshire being Glamperised by some hipsters and wanked off by George Clarke.

I thought so too - but some googling suggests they ran with both names? Bizarre 

Yes. Only up to W reg. In the UK only, it was known as the Persona from November '93 until March '00, when it was re-named the Wira. They did similar when they changed their Colt-based 3dr version from Compact to Satria, at the same time.
