    It looks familiar to me Stu, I'm sure its been on here before, but not often. Maybe only when owner had issues with it?

    If its all up together and ok seems a lot of car for the money. i can't see if it has a sunroof or not in those pics.

    And then there's teh sound with those cams, it's crying out for X Power tubes!!

    Such a varying degree in prices at the moment on these things...

    No sunroof. I can tell on here and it's def missing one...

    I'm sure that was for sale on PH when I was buying mine a couple of years back, I distinctly remember the colour + cams etc. Was around 10k if memory serves back then.

    Some choice upgrades there, I'd say that's a lot of car for the money!

    'Tis my 260 on Pistonheads!

    Due to financial constraints, something has had to give, unfortunately it's the car

    Nope, no sunroof. Techincally it's not an SE (and not advertised as one) - but it does have most of the kit. It's also the lowest numbered car to have the Mk2 bodykit and spec, as far as I am aware, unless anyone knows different.

    Anything else you want to know about it, just ask!

    Hi - I suppose the most crucial question - what condition is the paintwork in?

    Actually, due to the sports cats, it already sounds pretty loud just with the stock back boxes - I was always too scared to put X Powers on just in case it was a little too loud!

    yes, car was on PH about about 2 yrs ago from memory as the guy from south coast who had it then approached me to sell it to me but as an "SE" however the pics back then - you couldnt see the half leather/cloth, lack of sunroof and no heated seat buttons etc, so it looked like an SE in the pics but when i did some research found it was a std model but with some SE options so hence ex MG car.

    it was around circa £9,500 then. but we couldnt agree figures in the end due to spec value of SE differences. car was already modified back then at great expense

    still looks a nice car Andrew
