Bereavement Sale of 2 800's (New Pics Added)

Post by MG Mal » Sun Mar 18, 2012 9:38 am

I have been asked to post details of two 800's that are for sale due to the sudden and untimely passing of the owner.

I have few details at the moment apart from the following.

The cars are dry stored in Essex, and must be moved by the end of June.

The owner had an eclectic mix Of "Brit cars", and was a well known and respected member of the Marina Owners Club. (through which this has come)

The owners father is dealing with the sale of the "fleet" as it is in (I believe) a rented building, hence the deadline.

A Montego on the fleet has been sold, and the new owner has asked me to collect it for him at the end of the month.

At which time I will take more pictures of the cars, and confirm all details, including contact numbers etc.

It is advised to class these cars as without T@T and on SORN.

The two 800's are as follows.( as I have been informed)

White Gold 800 Coupe on 17" Vitesse Alloys and Private plate.
Azure Blue F Registered Mk1 827 Vitesse.
I believe the owners Father is looking for £500 for each car.

Pictures below are basic, and not very detailed due to the cars being "blocked in" and access limited at this time.

I understand that amongst the fleet there is also a "Rover Tomcat Turbo"

Quick Note:

To aid in finding these cars new homes, I have agreed "In principal" to transport the cars for the new owners if needed for cost, within a reasonable distance.

The Vitesse seems to be in fair condition, just from the photos taken.

Mal, is it known at this stage what transmission the 827 is?

Regardless, I could well be interested.
One or two 800s...

Not Yet Alex, but I will be calling him tomorow regarding collection of the Montego for a friend.

I'm not listing his contact details as yet, as I would like to get his permission first.

this post is to see if there is sufficient interest to pass details on.

As you can imagine, at this time, the last thing he need's are people who are only half interested, or think they can get something for nothing etc.

Understood, and no worries Mal.

I'd provisionally be interested in the 827, that's for sure.

I thought you might be. :wink:

Then again, I understand the cars are stored not too far from our very own "Ed Davey".

It's a manual gearbox Vitesse, Alex.

Almost a certainty at that age I would have thought.

Most were with the basic interior in.
