Agreed, I'd expect the details to be correct at that price and it wouldn't have taken much to get it right. I think that the colour suits it, though. I note that it says 'new in'; that car was advertised at the same dealer some time ago - the price stuck in my mind for some reason

It could certainly do with some TLC, a couple of years ago they also had a 1971, 36000 mile coupe in Admiralty Blue They obviously think that they are good cars to have another.

It is vastly overpriced, which is typical of his stock.

No sill trims lol. Satin black the sills too.

Now £42,750! Anyone seriously considering buying at this car should look very, very, very carefully ;-) At that price the car should be correct, but sadly it is not.

typical Rover banana bonnet/hood! Can that be a Rover colour? Looks like rush green.

At that price I would want a perfect paint finish. I don't know if he flatted back the orange peel visible in his paint shop pictures. The shut line on the R side of the bonnet indicates the usual damage from the bonnet flying open while driving and then being forced shut. How do I know this? Because that is what happened to mine (before I got it).

Nice looking coupe (the paint colour is a close facsimile to Juniper Green by the way...a Rover colour) but at a big price. You'd have to drive it before even considering it IMHO. Bling and surface appearance is all well and good as long as the mechanical aspects are on par. For the money asked though the engine compartment should have been detailed. There are no photos of the undercarriage AFAIK. I find it amusing that the royal 'we' pronoun is used by Graeme Hunt Ltd...I didn't realise he was related to the Queen!

It's not moved yet still for sale that tells you something, I had a chuckle at the rocker breather on the passenger side

Interesting MOT history 1220 miles in 15 years 81 miles a year so very little use?

Ignoring the colour both outside and in, coach line(s), sill trims, no wing badges etc. the door seals are not too great either - see picture 54. :-(

Whereas the black one has far too many badges, the sill trims are too short, the carpet is a bit in your face & look at where the wipers are parked (that’ll get people biting😆) but it’s a very smart looking car & a lot more affordable than the Graeme Hunt car

Either car would do me very nicely, but the black one is at least at an appropriate price range.
