Phew!! I thought I was going to be the one wearing the hat saying 'I paid the most for my Rover'

Hardly I bought mine back when they were worth something. I looked at one for Â£8995 and the average price for an m reg was circa Â£4000.

Â£1400

Out of interest, what were your cars worth new? Mine was Â£10,500, seems so much now considering what you can get for the money.

What were Tis worth? What about coupes?

I baught my Preg 1997 600ti in 2004 for Â£2150 with 75,000 miles on the clock but gearbox had a small leak.

Half a year later i had to get a recon gearbox as the current one at the time ate itself

Happy to say still have it and the modding is well under way.

Bloody hell! Can buy some nice cars today for that kind of money. (not that a Ti isnt nice of course

) I bet my sisters Alfa GTV cost around that mark back in the day. But then i guess cars are alot cheaper nowadays - mine was Â£10.5k new, nowadays you get alot of car for that money. Actually, looking on Google, a new GTV now is only about Â£23k new.
