Bargain!

[oliverb205]

This has been for sale for about a year, I have worked in Lymington this week maybe next time I should pop in and take a look (if I could find out where it is).

Isn't this a very sensible price for one of these, especially with this mileage and , (alleged) condition?

[LLantrisant]

why the passenger door has such unequal gaps front/rear? thats not hwo thise cars left the factory.

1owner, 30.000miles...never restored? i doubt that.
accident? repainted?

yellow painted bolt-heads on the fibreglass panel behind the servo.....

The painted bolts is how they were from the factory.

It probably wants some time and not too much money spending on it to be a very presentable unrestored car and got to be worth the money when an basket case early M can make 12k.

I understand the car that was complete but stripped last month on eBay made that kind of money

I advertised a complete but dismantled early M on ebay last month but it didn’t make anywhere near £12k.

I didn't think that they made the 2500M in 77 or thereabouts?

Is the 3000M more desirable?

[plasticpig1972]

2500m made from 73 to 77 ref "Tippler" book.
Deposit taken.

Looks like a very fair price.

[plasticpig1972]

Yes 1600M and he says it's faster than a 3000M.
That depends on driving style and what you want to do. High rev screamer or V6 torque, personal choice.
I've had both and for me at my age and what i want to do it's not a screamer.
Price looks correct, nice car.

Weird that. Up to middle age I just wanted a V8 for all the reasons frequently said. Then I started to get bored of driving lazy V8's that would never give any feeling of urgency. The last 10 years I've really enjoyed my revvy little 4-pot Crossflow and don't have any desire (currently) to go back to the world of V8's.

In fact hearing the scream of a BD engined rally escort for me is pure ecstasy - nothing else comes close.
