Very useful motor although I think it'll have a strong reserve. Not sure about the wiring visible beneath the dash though, so a few odd jobs to do but a rare old thing nonetheless.

"Firstly the car cost £4250 in 1990............ So no daft offers......and yes as we all know classic cars have risen dramatically since then!!!!!!! No I won't give the reserve away, but as you know it is a lot more than the price in 1990!!!!!!!"

OK - the seller might want to have a good price for it. But why then start the auction at a much lower level? £3,100.00 now (8.04 am).

It gets people interested and bidding, start at a high opening bid and I think people just skip by to the next interesting car.

Was bid up to £6,855.56 but reserve not met.
Now in the next Anglia Car auction on April 5, "estimate 7500 - 8500".
