A red one for sale £3200 or offers. Says it is a turbo but doesn't look like an Elford.
I am sure I have the reg no. recently

I’d ditch that spoiler. Am I alone?
I had a series 1 in the eighties which didn't have a spoiler and always thought it needed one.
I quite like it

I went to look at this last Autumn and was offered it for £1100 and passed on it and it had mot then. All I can say is that if it was worth £1100 I'd have bought it. £3200? No chance.

This one on eBay sold for £4600 :D

Mind you, it "sold" for £5600 earlier in the month and was re-listed ;)

EDIT: Just noticed that this car didn't sell after all, "Reserve not met" :o What reserve price did the seller put on it I wonder :?:

It does show buyers are willing to bid ~£5000 though ;)

Why did he reject £5600 and then sell it for £4600 when it was relisted
