Absolute jokers
That really is terrible journalism.

......or you could just try reading it properly.....

Worth about £2000 if it didn't have the PD connection, I sold Mrs Gunks similar car about 5 years ago for £2600

great designed cars, not beautiful but good design.

I don't think Switzerland can be used as a benchmark for anything...

You could probably spend a similar amount in the UK too, it just happens I live in CH and the dealer had it in the showroom.

According to the seller, MG Rover only made two cars of this exact specification... Which, by my reckoning, is two too many.

Unfortunate that someone at MG rover managed to damage 2 cars in the same way.

£4,450 seems like a lot for a V reg Civic. Then again i don't know much about the cars, could be a unicorn.

Not really. You can buy a better EP3 Civic for the same price. Why would you buy an old model like that ?

Lovely W124 cabrio, and the desirable in line 6 too, but even with the "barn find" tax, this is absolutely mental (plus it has the wrong indicators, a tow bar, and is possibly badged incorrectly too....)

Seems quite reasonable to me.

That is cheap for a 156 GTA SW Selespeed. Import from Japan, so might put some people off. There is a saloon advertised on here for 22k

That's dinner for two short of £145k at today's exchange rate and i can think of many better ways to spend that cash than on a diesel SUV (albeit a very fast one)

Isn't it the same petrol turbo V8 from the M5/M6?

It is indeed, for some reason I thought it was diesel powered. Even petrol powered though, I wouldn't!

A snip at £50k!

Shouldn't that be under warranty?

You would hope replacement engines range from 1900 to 4K on eBay
