They went down about as well as the SD1, which is to say they tanked due to build quality issues.

They also had the Rover P6b there, with the comedy bonnet mods to aid cooling.

That is an absolute dinger - just lovely. 

Serious question though: what are the chances that it was pulled out of a "barn" in that nick? How do you keep a car like that from deteriorating over a 40 year slumber?

I don't imagine any of us has the kind of money that will fetch but we must all pray that the new owner has the sense to leave those number plates where they sit!  Pressed black would be so wrong after the 50+ years those have been in place.

Forgot about these until I was watching that BBC drama called 'the investigation' and the main man drove a xtrail. Than I thought about these and that centre dash they rocked.

I am not sure camo is needed on that to be fair. You ask 99% of the population what has just ram raided Kwik Save and took all the no frills kit kat knock off was, they ain't gonna know.

Will just say 'was covered in some shit wrap though'

I bought this car as a small project and asked a local body shop to carry out some welding and paintwork for me. However, after stripping the car to carry out the work they went out of business and dropped it outside my house as you now see it.

Yes, on reflection I can see how volunteering to do 'some welding and paintwork' on this 'small project' might lead to instant bankruptcy
