a-Series greatness! very early mk2 metro clubman, just begging for some "old-skool" mods.
Too many toys/projects and the fact she is not used and is to be demoted from dry storage means
my "Lil Red Baron" must move to new ownership.
I'm the 3rd registered Keeper. The Second was a garage that took it in where its sat for about 2 years.
The story seems to go that it was bought for its first owner as a gift that wasn't overly appreciated and didn't get
a lot of love, although it was at least dry stored.
good bits:
5 brand new tyres on 5 metro pepper pot alloys (comes with 5 original steels and 99% mint metro hubcaps)
only ever had one very small patch welded on floor (under pedals). rest of body and underside is tip top tidy!
nearly new exhaust, battery, wipers.
drives like a brand new car.
only 28,000 miles.
paintwork is really nice and not faded. one or two ding/chips. minimal for 27 years old.
interior is really really clean, though not "mint" (one v tiny fag burn on pass seat), minimal wear on front carpet. rear seat looks unused.
everything works exactly as it should! right down to every bar in the heated rear screen.
all the joys of the A-series engine in a more comfortable car than a mini
bad bits.
good deep scratch above bonnet badge, but not rusting.
small dent just to lhs of n/s indicator and bonnet corner. has been "blown in", but could easily be done nicer.
rear bumper had split and has been bonded back together. (bumper is solid but you can see some of the glue).
no rear parcel shelf (though I believe this base model wasn't sold with them).
front screen rubber is a bit split, but still watertight.
sunroof latch/handle is broken so has been sealed closed (never bothered me as its got huge door windows)
has 9 months MOT,
comes with a basic service kit (oil, filter. plugs already fitted)
£1500 ONO.
