One of the MG V6 variants for sale on the street near me at £859 in the windscreen.
Really fancy it, but even that paltry amount is beyond my meagre finances
Need a £100 pound one before I can think about it seriously.
How does £300 with a free LPG kit sound?Really fancy it, but even that paltry amount is beyond my meagre finances

It's a good job the pictures weren't better... or I'd be tempted!
Fantastic stuff, my stepgrandad has just got rid of his diesel estate at 170k, that was on a 51 plate and starting to look quite tired in places. They're a great car and for the price you really can't go wrong. I'll seriously consider one as a bit of a mile muncher when it comes to choosing a new daily.
Well im 3700 miles into it now, its doing bloody well. Returning 57mpg solo daily. And tonight, it really did the job intended.
From work, I flew up the A34, M40 into Bicester. Picked up my new (to me) caravan, and came back! Lets just say, 60mph on any hill is not an issue, infact, its a problem. Its too easy to start pulling north of 70, without the autobox even dropping down a cog, and if you know the A34, you'll know there are some good long hills!
Couple of pictures. As usual, before I took a roadtrip, I cleaned the bloody thing, again!
And all hitched up, stopped at the services just to check everything. Apart from being slower than solo, and dropping to 41mpg, you wouldnt know it was on the back!

3 Months since the last update.
The car has performed faultlessly, now up to 144k, and returning great economy, towing perfect, but alas, new job, new company car, and the purchase of a V8 Discovery means its the end of my tenure with the Rover.
This weekend will be spent, cleaning, polishing, and making some form of advert. Where to advertise a smoker like this now? Gumtree are charging £15 per car, which is a big jump

Gumtree is still free, as far as I can tell? 
I would go for Ebay classifieds with best offer - big audience and plenty of pics / text allowed. Has always worked quickly for me.
