Cheap V8 and 2.5 spotted
Just seen a 2004 V8 for sale on 46k miles for £7995. It's at M & M Automation ( 01590 421125). Also at West Lanes Motors (01772 507432) a 2002 2.5 Connie SE Auto on just 65k at £1,000. No nothing about vendors but these seem steals to me.

The V8 has been advertised before, when I phoned them about it back in February I was told they had firm interest from Germany. It was formerly registered as V800 something from memory. It was the same price then, make of that what you will but hasn't sold yet.

That's why mine is silver! No other option at the time available. No regrets though. When you're driving it, the colour becomes less relevant and the steady push in the back addictive. Under stressed V8 is reliable as is the well engineered manual transmission in the MG version. Don't know how good the automatic is, but it's nice to see prices on the up! Mine has no scuttle shake after 15 years from new, just the usual troubles with water leaks/petrol pump clip and eating rear tyres with spirited driving. When you see the prices for some of the modern stuff, I think I'll stick with what I've got and look after it.

That's lovely, but I'd prefer it in Pearl Black (I can dream...!)
Bargain for a V8 75, given the scarcity these days. Just around the corner from us too!

I do like the silver cable ties securing the grill
One cannot beat a nicely prepared car for sale |

I cannot find the link to it, but I believe the wall behind the left hand rear quarter used to be much smaller than it is now, and was even smaller when the V8 drove into and over it. Check out the sill damage too. https://origin-resizer.images.autoex...36025691_4.jpg
