Hi there,
Reluctantly the time has come to move on my 825 Coupe.
I have compiled a listing and popped it on eBay.
Please take a look

Re: Rover 825 Sterling Coupe Automatic - Met Blue with Grey for sale
Not wishing to rain on your parade Tim but i sold my 827 Coupe last year with at least 9 months MoT and in between then and now, 800 values in general have taken a big hit.
The fact yours has flat tyres and isn't running puts a further dent in the value. There is another potential problem - where were the keys when the battery went flat? If they were anywhere near the ignition switch, there's a very high chance the immobiliser has locked out permanently. Likewise if the keys are in the ignition when the battery is reconnected after charging.
On the upside, it's a nice looking car - if i were you i'd get it running and put it in for MoT, if it goes through with similar advisories to the last one, you have a much more saleable car. Alternatively, if it fails, you can still add this information to your listing and this will gives buyers more confidence in committing to a deal on it. If it's something cheap/quick/easy to sort for the test, you could also do that and then sell with a years ticket which should get you a much better price.
Whichever way you do it, good luck with the sale, keep us posted!
