thanks. iv seen this and unfortunately the advert doesnt exactly sell it very well, if it needs a clean inside and you spend all that externally why not just get it cleaned? i hate slackarse adverts.

That could work to your favour though by keeping the price down and would cost £50 for a nice valet...

Or an afternoon's work to do it yourself. That way you'd guarantee it was done properly.

When I bought my F I managed to knock a sizeable chunk off the asking price because of a crack in the rear bumper. I found one in the correct colour on the bay of fleas for half the savings, delivered.

Guy I work with is about to sell his 160.

It has been owned by enthusiasts who have added little touches like the second horn, heated washer jets, high lift cams etc.

It had a new head gasket early last year, then dropped a valve so has had the top end rebuilt and a lot of other work.

It got a fresh MOT recently.

Comes with a hard top.

I have no idea on price, he only mentioned it was for sale a few minutes before the end of work.

Car is in Crawley, next to Gatwick airport.
Home to black Alfa 159 3.2 V6 Q4, blue MGZR160, green MGF VVC and grey MGF 1.8i, and red MG Maestro T16.
