I know it's crap, but how the hell can anyone think it could be worth £5K?

Good find. I've been looking for this for a while..

Now I can go set it on fire - In Glasgow, Lancashire or maybe the UK. The search is getting narrower though.

Cheers.

I've just re-read his description..

He's selling 'b'cos' he's got another kid and cant finish it.

Lesson: Dont get another kid until you've finished your first.

Its a Rover 45, never the most stunning vehicle, some cars can survive some kits and turn out ok but by and large they end up making you look special needs, especially on a Rover. To be fair, its not just Rovers, similar abominations are commited on Civics, Saxo's and the like.

No mate, it's not a one off bodykit, the ebay ad says it's a 'one OF bodykit'

I couldn't get a price for a '96, maybe knock a couple of hundred quid off?

Rover 400 414i
1.4 Petrol 5-door Hatchback
5 Speed Manual Front Wheel Drive
Year: 1999 S
Mileage: 65,000




Part-exchange Price:
Excellent condition:
£350
Average condition:
£305
Below average condition:
£260


I bet Gutman Pug is upset he just bought a BMW 5 when he could have had this honey - he does like the 400 series rover

I reckon Top Gear should buy it, go round to his house and smash it up in front of him then give him the money for it, then pay to have it crushed
