No reserve auction for V6 Connie SE with 14,500 miles
Best colour too - if only it would go in the garage I'd be tempted to squirrel it away... assuming the price doesn't go stratospheric!

Needs a good looking as being an ex Guernsey car, they often look a lot better than they actually are underneath.
With no long runs and being surrounded by sea the cars from there are often smokey and very rusty. |

I would be tempted to avoid this seller like the plague, he "sold" various low mileage cars before "from his private collection", and not all was as it seems, or is the seller what he seems, the shill bidding is though

The surroundings are very familiar to previous 'dodgy' reading 75/ZTs in the past.
One of the feedback certainly sounds like shill bidding 'understanding seller' hmmmm What is the 'Mason's Black' anyway? but do the MOT history check.

Another bulletproof engine though this time it's a V6 rather than a diesel. As well as being as prone to their own specific faults as all the engine variants, I doubt any would fare too well under attack from a Magnum 44 either.

It hadn't been used for "four years" on Guernsey, and surrounded by sea air. Needs a very close examination before anybody makes a decision. |
