 ;)I am very interested, so I guess will be others, lets see ................

Looks like a pretty good example and I'm sure it will make at least the ?1000 it needs to come with 12 months MOT.

Lots of damage. But at least you get the umbrella for free 

[stathe174]

Where is the damage in the umbrella Mike?

[mirafioriman]

Already over ?1000

Isn't ebay fickle? The Maltese import had a full 12 months MOT, and struggled to make this much.

On the face of it this looks like an excellent Supermirafiori and with some TLC and money could I am sure could be a great car. However when you want a Sport nothing else will do

Certain keywords in the ad. "Elderly lady", "garaged all its life", and others give the impression this is a solid car driven by a responsible, cautious person. Dents and scratches are quite self-evident when buying a car from elderly people, so I wouldn't care about that. I agree with Rob, with a little work this is a very good Super for the connoisseur who is not set on Sport and nothing else.

As always you need to go and look to make sure it really is what you want. It does also say in the ad that it has been welded previously. The question is how much, where and to what standard?

[mirafioriman]

Now it's back at ?800 after a bid retraction 

[mirafiori76]

To buy a car at ebay by just looking at some pictures is a high risk. Especially when there are no pics of the underside. And how about mechanial stuff.

[mirafioriman]

I suppose it depends if you can do the work yourself or have to pay someone to do it for you. Generally the mechanical parts are pretty easy to get and mechanical repairs are pretty easy to do to a good standard. The problem for most people is the bodywork.

[mirafioriman]

I would also like to see under those front seat covers to see what condition the front seats are in.......

[jasonh131]

I bet it goes a lot higher , if that green 1.6 tc went for ?900 or more that i looked at in Rainham and that was rotten but totaly complete ,
 this looks a great find ,they still come out of the woodwork
