Is this the same one that keeps changing hands? If so, I'm sure it was on Facebook a while back for about half that.

Cool

This car is doing the rounds. Has had at least 3 other owners since it’s first owner sold it with just 23,000 miles on the clock. Car was brought to my attention in 2014.
No. 4 of the 4 produced in Sunspot Yellow, mine is no.3. No’s. 1 & 2 were exported to Southern Ireland, 1.8t & a 190. I believe the 190 is still around.

The only ZTT, 180, is still alive as far as I know, and lives in Portsmouth.

There was a Rover 75,120, produced but fate unknown.
The only Rover 25 produced was written off in a roll over crash back in 2014.

When sold last year it went for £7,500.

As far as I’m concerned it has never been in a private collection unless you count a car dealers as being in a “private collection”.

I assume someone is seeing the posts. It was on Facebook marketplace last week I think in Bromsgrove for £4000 but lasted less than an hour and I assume sold to this fella.

Surprising that a car like that seems to be going through so many owners, so wonder why? That is the sort of car that I would keep and keep for best.

£10k is serious money if that's what the buyer paid for it, and considering it was up for around £4k a few weeks ago.

I think a couple of owners bought it in the hope of turning a quick profit.

Even 260’s don’t go for that sort of money.
