Theres one going in Rossett for £3200 so you could get them to drop it 200 np i would imagine. Its on a "V" plate if thats not too old. White wheels and its green. Theres only going to be one garage that sells cars in Rossett. Though its a little more north than West Midlands, towards chester (about 5 miles away)

What sort of mileage are you considering?......

here you go, found one that someone posted in the general section of SN:

http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/2815492.htm

for £1700 quid looks a bargain, though only examining will tell. its prob got a lot of mileage considering how old it is "L" plate

Whats wrong with Mg they made some great cars, spoke to a guy in the know the other day he was saying the vvc engine was amazing engine, only down side was the cooling systems.

Once you own a scoob nothing will ever compare to itLol Mistubishi evo, Nissan skyline.
