It’s the dealer I bought my Unipower GT off 8 years ago, they’re asking €85k for BCR.InnoCooperExport wrote: ↑Tue Apr 13, 2021 11:01 am Very cool, but hate to think what the asking price will be!

Joking aside, if anyone is stupid enough to buy them, there is a potential safety issue - maybe its just Darwinian.....

I wouldn't be prepared to do that either. Perhaps he was messed about in a previous listing? I'm sure it isn't the first time that car has been listed. Rusty isn't it!

Couldn’t find mention of V5, I think, if you apply for v5, if you get old reg, it will be non-transferable....Which will affect the value.....?locrep wrote: ↑Sun Apr 18, 2021 7:43 am All seemed very good until I read the last line,

Minded to think it just gets rid of the dreamers - Given one image is of the vendors mobile phone number and viewing is available and recommended I'm sure any sale will happen outside of Ebay and involve a fistful of readies.Old English White wrote: ↑Sun Apr 18, 2021 9:29 amI wouldn't be prepared to do that either.

Re: WTH??!?! Have you seen this item on ebay.
The fate that has befallen BCR is an absolute tragedy!
Not so long ago it was one of the most interesting survivors, with a tremendous history. It has now been turned into a totally bland, badly put together travesty of a Mini Cooper S. The idiot that has ruined that wonderful car should be absolutely ashamed of themselves. From top to bottom it looks like it has been restored by a half wit!
Treated correctly the car would have been one of the most significant "survivors" with well known Rally & race history. It would have been well up there with cars like Peter's & not far off "Works" mini value. Now it has been wrecked it is nothing more than a very poor reshell job that anyone with half a brain would walk past without a flicker.
Just look at the "quality" of the work carried out! I was managing to get a better door fit that this 30 years ago!
