White 4th Gen
My other half has sold his Rover Turbo Coupe, so we've been trawling Ebay for a new car. We came across this and thought we'd have a look.
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... 0897209606
Sorry if anyone knows the owner or the owner is on here, but a lot of things were omitted from the listing.
Boot - totally rotten beyond rescue and covered in vinyl
Bonnet - rotting
Bodywork - every panel marked, needing full respray
Paintwork peeling off door handles, roof, etc
Windscreen - been replaced poorly at some point, rubber not securing it in and hanging out
Body kit - front skirt damaged quite bad and hanging of at back arch
Interior - stereo and all console below missing
Wheels - hand painted, as were black inserts etc
Boot - waterlogged and rotting, interior trims missing
If you or anyone you know is thinking of bidding, please be aware of all this, we just walked away. Definately not an £800 car.
I love my orange machine but my other half doesn't. Wouldn't mind a 2.2 if it was right though...

Re: White 4th Gen
Tbh you can tell by looking at that Halfords special it's going to be a shitheap.
