DESCRIPTION
Austin Metro MG from 1983 - 1275 cc engine - ASI Certificate of Historicity. Competition set-up (winner of Mono-brand Championship in Zandvoort),
enhanced engine and tuned set-up (Weber carburettor, air filter, oil radiator, intake manifold, cylinder head, camshaft, brake hoses, engine mounts, rear shock absorbers, hydrogas suspension calibration).
Recently restored mechanics and body, rebored alloy rims, new tyres. Only 100 km driven since restoration.
Possibility of reinstalling the Rollbar (not included) for “historical competitive” use. The rollbar was removed for the car registration and roadworthiness (essential in Italy).
All changes were originally implemented in the Netherlands and maintained during the restoration. A car with high performance and a fun sport drive. Very rare and unique. Inspection valid until the end of July 2018.
Many body and interior spare parts come from another Metro model.

As written in the important car magazine Quattroruote (issue 321, July 1982 - “Impressioni di guida MG Metro), this car is the heir of the Mini Cooper.


This vehicle can be viewed and picked up in Rome, Italy.

Unique Objects

Occasionally, two different bidders may show up in the bidding history with the same bid amount. This occurs when one user's bid is exactly the same as an automatic (maximum) bid placed by another user earlier. Since the auto-bid was placed first, this takes preference. The bidding history will show both bids, with the auto-bid ranked as the higher of the two.


Double bid

It may appear that the same bid has been placed by two different bidders. This can occur if someone places a bid in another currency which is then rounded to the same amount as the previous bid in %{local_currency}.

This can occur for the following reasons:
<p>1. If an opening bid does not meet a lot’s reserve price (hidden minimum), buyers may try outbidding their earlier bid in order to find that lot’s RP.</p>
<p>2. If an auto-bid (user-set maximum bid) is outbid, the bidding log will show the first and final steps of that user's auto-bid in a row. The new highest bid will be shown at the top.</p>

Why is this bidder outbidding him- or herself?
