My quest for a 160 continues... I love the idea of the cream/beige leather

This seems vastly overpriced to me

Do we have any members in the Stoke on Trent area?
could perhaps check this oe out for me?

They both look mint.(esp. the green one, haha). Church Square autos has a good rep, but as you noticed, they also know how to charge. Hopefully someone in the Stoke area will come forward. Best of luck.

As David has said Church Square autos have a good reputation for nice cars but they are expensive, one of our members bought a TF Spark from them last year and it is superb in all aspects (was owned by the chap that runs the MGF register in the MGCC) but it was £8.4k ~ the MG Midget that they are advertising for £4495 belonged to one of our members and they gave him £2k for the car, it is a beautifully restored example, topps its worth £3k so their markup is very high. the "mint" green one on ebay looks good too and seems the right price, but looks can be deceptive. Good luck

It must be worth that price just for the fact that it is Royal Blue.

I would give them a call and let them explain why they are asking so much. There is nothing special about it. They even put "upgraded" AP brakes, but they are standard.

I have often looked at Church Square Autos adverts - they always appear to have very nice cars in stock but they are never cheap!

I suppose if people are still buying from them then they can charge based on their name and reputation.
