Anyone fancy an 18,000 mile Rover 820e Fastback?

[cort16]

It's a bit of a long long story but I've been speaking to this chap about this Rover 820e he's got with that seems to have only done 18,000 miles.

I had grand plans of going down to Brighton to pick it up for myself and driving it back to Scotland in what would obviously be a completely event free journey.

Anyway I doubt I'll be able to buy it now as I'm at full capacity so i asked the guy if it was okay to post up pictures and information here. The car is nothing to do with me I just thought someone on here might be interested it it.

 

The car is T&T until July and he wants £700 for it, which if the mileage is genuine seems like a decent price.

 

I asked him if the 18k mileage was genuine etc and he said..

 

. It started and drove perfectly ( it had been sitting for a while). It was used once or twice a month for short journeys during the last six years.

 

I noticed a small scuff on the body coloured bumper offside rear, otherwise the body work and paint is in very good condition, no rust. I have a load of paperwork including old mot certificates the owners manual, v5 etc. I havent had a good look through them yet.

 

If your interested then PM me and I'll give you his e-mail address..

Paging Lord Sterling!

Bloody hell, nice car. I thought it had already been sold? There is a fella on the rover 800 forum who said he has bought it and posted up the same pics.

 

If thats not the case I'll let VeryTallBrad know, though I doubt he'll buy it, he already owns the 820e I'm using

[cort16]

Possibly. I got an email from the guy on Monday saying it was still for sale. I've been away all week and this is the first chance I've had to post it.

[Lord Sterling]

The fella the Rover forum posted today so I'm guessing its already sold. He'd been speaking to the current owner since Monday when he started the thread.

[cort16]

Ah bollocks. At least it looks like it's gone to a good home.

[Lord Sterling]

I know what you mean, I would have been wall over that like flies to crap given the money and space. I really like the dismal Montego-like sounding engines of the 820e, sadly the 820e I'm using will have to go back when my Sterling is eventually given back to me.

I'd love i but no money sorry

[Station]

That would be nice to drive from there to Scotland.

Shit the bed, check out the interior. That's got to be genuine mileage.

Ooooo lovely lovely lovely. Except it's a shame it's a MK1b, I like the stubbier Mk1a bumpers. And I never liked those "shouldn't you be on a metro?" wheeltrims.

[CIH]

Dude those hopeless trims are the best bit!
