Hi all
I made the silly mistake of bidding on something I didn’t look at properly. Was on the auction and the item I wanted sold for a lot more then I was hoping to pay
Then this popped up, seemed cheap and I clicked bud…. 🤦🏽 I know stupid of me!!!

So anyway I brought this, with the mindset of making a quick small profit! Looks a little more crispy then the cover picture.
They say it’s running but will it get an MOT? Do I take my losses and put it straight back in to the auction or is it worth the punt?

It’s a British open edition with a million owners
It owes me £3500 to my door

Haven’t taken delivery yet, has a little rust around rear window and some repair in the boot
Any idea what sill repairs might cost?

Really can’t say if you’ve overpaid but if you like the car, it’s worth fixing. Remember, there will never be any new ones built (apart from ridiculously overpriced toys for millionaires) so you are a custodian of something of historical significance.

If you like like the car, persevere. Learn how to weld - panels are all available and you’ll have developed a new skill
Totally agree with this! But I have a 59 I’m working on and an Audi 100 coupe S
Did just buy it as a flip
