It’s cork, the worst that can happen is he has to get the bus back. I’d say the gamble is worth it for something a bit more fun

Seems it is a Merc engine...old though even for it. Crap reviews even when new lol But very probably is rwd. Throw a dodgy MOT on it ? lol With 760k on it, it must have been a taxi

Look past the ungainly styling and the SsangYong Rodius is a spacious and well-equipped MPV

Car check says it has MOT until 15th August! Get it bought!
Seen a ‘barn find’ rx8 for 450 but obviously no ticket on it

Remember i took a MG ZT from Belfast, 4500 miles to Bratislava and back in 7 days with absolutely no issues. Ragged up and down the alps and round the nurburgring in the process and the year before doing the same in a £250 pinto sierra. The potential of it not getting there is half the fun.

In Ballycastle, with MOT and the damage can be ignored. It was obviously driving well enough if the cub was out in it.

This is an MGF. Apologies about this. My son is very sorry.

The csr was bought by me and the engine was transplanted into my ztt, which several years later is still going strong.

Nothing wrong with an MG ROVER car, its the inability of people to maintain them.

Thought I would update you all with this fine specimen.

some v8 goodness, with a full years ticket. The exhaust has been stolen from the cats back so we are welding some pipe in today 😂 it did mean it was just £250 and all that rust hiding awful vinyl was already in situ as comically someone thought that looks nice. Result 😂
