What about the "AM/FM Stereo" ??? Surely that adds thousands to the value?

It looks pretty rough too. Shame he wants £500 for it, as its local to me, and I'm getting desperate for a turbo engine.. Although the MG community wouldn't be happy with killing a tickford for its engine!

a LIL fishing village on the coast - Newcastle Upon Tyne

looks like a shit heap to moi. tipford / tickford / river ford what ever ! no matter what you do to it, it will remain a 1983 mg metro :) judging by the mould on the steering wheel, a very wet / rotten metro at that.

All i can see Tickford is a mouldy dash, and a cracked bodykit. Wheels and seats are boggo Metro turbo - from a later turbo aswell...

Second car i ever had - a 2.8i capri - aged 17!

Of course the logbook it was being 'used on' was a 1600L that i'd sent to the big banger racing track in the sky previously *wink* ...
I just insured it as a 1.6L modified with a 2.8 engine - and it worked out something ridiculous like only £70 quid more for the year than a boggo 1.6L
I think insurance companies are wise to this nowadays - back 'when i were a lad' it didn't seem to matter; they just based it on the 'base vehicle' then added a little for any mods...

Nope!
That was in my name!

The first car was in my dad's name (range rover) for obvious reasons!

Crapi didn't last long anyway... Stuck with Crapadas and Poortinas after that... Buy them with short MOT's, drive till it was 'out', then hello banger racing track. Ah, happy days! *happy*
