montytom Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 17 hours ago, Dick Longbridge said: Confused on this one. Was the 75 launched in May 1999? Some other posts suggest they were launched in 1998. This one was registered in March 1999 and is close plate of another known early car. Over to those in the know?! Edit: Found a post by @montytom confirming it has all the hallmarks of an early one: Hi this one is a pre launch, The 75 was launched in early 99 but they made some at the tail end of 98 for photoshoots etc, Then some were kept by management and others scrapped. I had an s reg one many years ago but the T reg pre production ones are more common. On the VIn plate it would show two '00's denoting a pre launch car. Its a nice spec but the bodywork would be alot to fix and by the time cambelts etc have been done you would be nearly £4000 in if not more. grogee and Dick Longbridge 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or, if not insured, why haven't the police impounded it? Even if they didn't declare it and 'just' hit a wall, how did it get back to their house in that state? 🧐 Looks like something hit it rather than it hitting something. Perhaps it was parked in the road outside, hit and run, they've only got third party insurance so they've managed to push it onto the drive. grogee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like a bit more than tyre damage to me.. even that pinch bolt looks bent 🤣 Would love to know how that happened! The seller must be thinking to themselves about how they can hide the rest of the damage. "I know, let's cover it in this shitty green cloth!"

Even if they didn't declare it and 'just' hit a wall, how did it get back to their house in that state? 🧐 It does all seem very odd, they could have bought it back from insurance but the buy back value is going to be far more than £300 so it can't be that and it wouldn't make sense to buy it back then sell it for less than it's breaker value. It seems very cheap so it probably is more likely that they have damaged it and are looking to escape insurance. But surely given the damage to the door there must have been another vehicle involved!? Or they've bought it through auction, and realized it's fucked the suspension but it still wouldn't be that cheap. I wish luck upon whoever has to recover it without a wheel or functional suspension to speak of on the OSF corner! Very fishy indeed grogee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

montytom Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 @grogee I don't understand you laughing emojee on my comment. That 75 has been for sale many times. I saw it a while ago with different pictures and the bodywork is knackered. Then you have cambelts water pump etc. The sills probably need looking into also brakes tyres etc. It soon ads up. I only state this as I have easily spent silly sums on my old 75s. They can chew money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fairness, it wouldn't make sense to buy a car like that and then shell out on sorting it out at retail prices You've either got to do all the work yourself as a labour of love or at least a significant proportion of it If someone isn't in a position to do it themselves then it's far easier to buy an already sorted example montytom and Shite Ron 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
