4200 bucks for this seems cheap to me? I know there are one or two niggles. If it wasn't in Yorkshire, I'd consider it! Your views??

9 Previous owners?

Red?

Apart from that, he's been more than honest and the car actually looks in nice nick.

That was only the starting price though wasn't it ??

I must admit that I wouldn't be able to live with the interior, it looks horrid !!

As has been said though - seems like a genuine advert with good descriptions.

Far from my favourite colour combo, but each to his own; it's certainly not enough reason to drop the price by thousands. Also, surprisingly bright paintwork for quite an old car! No mention of a respray, but if she has had one recently and still mentions 'bubbles' I'd worry about the quality of the 'job', or why it was done.

I'd be most worried about the apparent engine rebuild; the RV8 is very much old school and damn near bomb-proof. Why did she need one?

A heck of a lot of performance for the money, if she is genuinely 'ok'.


ETA- Full respray in 2006 is mentioned.
