New one on ebay today with 178,000 miles curiously priced at £8,888...

Its cause isn't helped by it being white. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/172526953124?ul_noapp=tr...
The mileage wouldn't bother me at all, in fact I'd see it as a positive, but white is a bit of a kiss of death for me.

Late car tho in a good colour, I expect it will still make £2k + as it stands

Originally listed as an auction with a £150 start price, now listed as £5000 classified ad ! I'll be amazed if its worth £5k as it stands. Vendor is the same.

Looks rather unloved though doesn't it? I'd agree that it'll be well worth 2 grand. I wouldn't pay anywhere near 5 for it, but someone might want the interior or other parts. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/272557851555?ul_noapp=tr...

Seems a shame to strip it, but you'd need to buy it very cheap to make it worthwhile doing much work.
Started making enquiries on this one:

Was subject to some paintwork by r restorations(?) in Towcester: anyone familiar with them?

That's a hard advert to read and I worry the vendor might be a pain but it certainly sounds worthy of further enquiry. I think I would want to see the car to form a view on its condition. Good luck and let us know how you get on. http://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C850234

Is that the one that was offered privately at £50K in early January, then was reduced to £39,995 and then the advert disappeared? Had the car looked over (thanks to PH'er Rds64), and I'm oot. Whilst the body has had some paint recently, the interior is a letdown, in need of a fair bit of tlc and with a few electrical niggles. If it hadn't received the new paint, I doubt it'd make £6K. As it stands now, it's not a £10K car.
