eBay tat volume 3.

S Reg Rover 75! £1000. A leggy diesel manual though, on the plus side it looks relatively rust free, and the sills look fairly solid apart from some light crispiness

Edit - as it transpires pretty much all of that was horseshit. :( 140k isn't really leggy, and the sills have been repaired poorly. That's what the initial excitement does when you find something you wanted! But not now it has come to light it isn't really an S reg, so the seller must be talking out of their rear end too..

^ edit

Boooo, it's a fake S reg. Actually registered in 2001 :(

Seller is a lying git

And in all my excitement I missed the massive hole in the sill actually!

Do you want the drudgery of an Almera, with none of the hatchback practicality? Step this way sir.

I might be out of touch with the market, but I'd be wanting an MOT for a grand.
