ellis Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 NOW SOLD! Advertising this here on behalf of a friend of my dad's. I'm pretty tempted to buy this for myself as a runaround and flog the Supra now but . . . This is an immaculate Rover 25 Impression in metallic/pearlescent blue with just 15,758 miles on the clock. One lady owner (I know, clichéd or what but it's true!) For sale is this immaculate Rover 25 Impression 53 plate (2003) 1.4 manual, petrol car in metallic pearlescent blue with FSH. This car is a one lady owner car only covering an astonishing 15,758 miles from new! Has all the usual Impression goodies: • Radio Casette player • Alloy Wheels • Central Locking • Alarm/Immobiliser • Electric Windows • Power Steering • Trafficmaster Alert System This car is in superb condition and has a full service history. Paintwork, interior and exterior are in stunning condition and this car represents a chance to buy one of the lowest mileage, best condition Rover 25s on the market. This will truly be an exceptional buy for the lucky winner. The car comes with 6 months MoT and 7 months road tax so is ready to roll - no worries, no hassles, just pay and drive away! The car is located in Beverley, East Yorkshire and will obviously need collecting by the lucky buyer. As always, funds need to clear into the lady owner's account before the car will be released. Also on eBay (where I just copied and pasted this from) with pics: It's got a starting bid of £1,000 on eBay and ideally she'd like about £1,400 for it. Open to very close offers from anyone on here though. Link to the eBay advert: Rover 25 on eBay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyson Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 When it says FSH has it actually had one every year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ellis Posted March 20, 2012 Author Share Posted March 20, 2012 When it says FSH has it actually had one every year? About every 5,000 miles I think - 3 stamps in the book but looked after in between. Just had a new battery and a few little touches apparently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellis Posted March 20, 2012 Author Share Posted March 20, 2012 That's a 9 year old, brand new car..!! I know - I'm a bit tempted myself to be honest - flog the Supra now and run that for the next 9 months - would easily get most of my money back!

ellis Posted March 20, 2012 Author Share Posted March 20, 2012 Right - bit of movement on this already! The eBay ad has generated quite a lot of interest with a couple of gradually increasing offers! We're at £1300 with offline offers on there so if any of you guys want to snap up a bargain, the next 24 hours is the time as I reckon this will hit the £1400 she's after very soon!

ellis Posted March 21, 2012 Author Share Posted March 21, 2012 Plenty of interest in this car. Chap seeing it in the morning (very eager) plus two close offers from the eBay ad. This'll be gone by lunch tomorrow I reckon. Good price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyson Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 nice quick turnaround ! Nice little car would have made you a nice daily ellis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ellis Posted March 21, 2012 Author Share Posted March 21, 2012 It would indeed but I couldn't rob the lady of this. She initially wanted a few hundred quid for it and I had to say no way, you can get far more than that for it. Lesser cars of this age are still going for nearly £2K. Hence why we're now helping her sell it and getting far more for it. Lady's on a state pension too so every extra quid we can get for it for her is a bonus.

Good man, you don't see that kind attitude very often. Someone of lesser standards would have jumped on that as a bargain, you have my vote if you run for LBM's job !!
