2005? What's going on there then? Or a very crap private plate?

It's older than that, second character on the plate is a 5.

Yes, I was trying to steal it. The original picture title is 'Scouser on a Bike'

Shonky Rover Metro - £250

"Is warm, dry, comfortable and handles well"

Eh, what! Weren't we talking about a Metro here!?

That statement doesn't carry quite as much weight when it's spent 4 of those years off the road...

I think he made that after seeing an Isdera Impreator, but only briefly

From the side, yes, from the front I would say it's closer to a Wiegert Vector W8

To be fair that list isn’t horrendous. New tyres, bulbs, rear wheel cylinders and a couple of bushes basically. Still cheap for a running M-reg motorcar in 2022 AD isn’t it?

Ok horrendous is a stretch, but it could turn into a shitshow with brake pipes when doing the cylinders and I wouldn't imagine the rear bushes will be a walk in the park

For a thirty year old car which has sat around for four years, there's nothing particuarly alarming on that list. The key thing is there's no mention of creeping gingerness, which is virtually unheard of on a Metro. Someone buy it!

Looks like the seller has been pretty honest, to be fair.

Needs some work, but nothing too scary. It's all in one piece, at least.
