Thought this might be of interest to someone on here:- https://stock.morrisleslie.com/stock/de ... ation=6101
Morris Leslie Auctions is only a few miles along the road from me and i keep a regular eye on what is going through and spotted this.
The vehicle has nothing to do with me, i have absolutely no vested interest or connection to it.

Ive viewed this car a few weeks back only to find its not as its advertised, cracked rear bumper rust on the back quarters under windows, bottom of drivers door bent out like its been closed on something, top of inner wings corroded engine has a top end right hand bank tool kit not complete Etc

Explains why it has ended up at auction

Because of the top end knock he did tell me he would have it checked and if it turned out to be an issue he would put in an auction up there

rust on the back quarters under windows

The rust is probably just the clip that holds the chrome trim in place. A known issue

You potentially have saved me a journey up to look at this plus. I seen the pics and description and it looks very good plus it’s one owner low miles. Got my eye on the 53 plate black saloon that looks and sounds ok got middle bit beside the gearbox missing but that’s just being picky. Anyone know of this car or even been to see it please??

Thats why ive put a honest review on, the guy said if you travel and find any issues i would refund my deposit a travel costs, he gave me my deposit but no travel expenses so wants happy with the lies just trying help honest people

Top end knock? I'd say usually top end noises are either rattle (cam chain adjusters) or tap (lifters). Unless something's so knackered that the piston is hitting the head - but a knocking noise would be a minor symptom compared to the rest of the noises it'd probably be making.
