Rear lights aren't cheap to buy these days - car is well worth 99p

More so if front screen chrome is there.

Damn.... Someone else has spotted the lights
Prospective buyer would need to take a spade.
Overriders and L471 tail lights would suggest an early Series II?

Would be interesting to see how well it has survived below ground level..................
Sad to see it in that state though.................

I contacted the seller yesterday, and yesterday evening received a couple of photos ( don't know how to transfer those onto here, but they are enough to make you weep! Not a square inch of paint and it looks as though they have danced a reel on the roof and the bonnet!). and the following message;
"Hi,
The car was set alight by vandals so as you can see it is burned out!
Before this it was complete with the front bumper, lights, grille and wings removed and were inside the car. (burnt of course)
The engine and gearbox is still in the car but the bonnet has not been opened since the fire. The wheels and tyres are still on the
car and the spare is in the boot.
I am in Aboyne Area and the car is in Banchory at present as it belongs to my brother in law. The log book may turn up!
I may take it home soon or take it to the scrap yard if it doesn't sell for the scrap price."
May the wee yobos be sentenced to life of hard physical labour filling in all the potholes around the vast road network of Aberdeenshire!
