Title: Bond mkE
Post by: Bob Purton on January 27, 2009, 11:01:13 PM

Its very quite on the forum lately, where is everyone?  I notice there is a Bond MKE on ebay at the moment , Im not really up on bonds but am I right in thinking that this is a rare model, didnt they only make the MKE for a very short time?

Yep Bob you are right. Seems we all are in the shed's doing some work on our cars. I will restart my work on my KR201. Hope to get it back on the road asap.

Yes, the MkE Tourer is a very rare car.  This particular example was advertised for sale in the current Classic Car Weekly but sold immediately but not surprising at an asking price of £600  ::)

Here it is,

Looks like the buyer for £600 is trying to make a fast buck, he says he is waiting to get the V5 back from DVLA!  ::)

It must be a rare model, it just made £4,775.00 and it stayed in Blighty!

I didnt notice that Rob but if as suggested that it was bought and moved on by a dealer its no suprise that he didnt mind. I'm glad Bruce didnt get it.
