I took a photo of a decaying one in Southampton about 30 years ago.....I put the strip of negs in to get an enlargement of something else on the strip but cocked up the order form and got a 5x7 print back of this rotten RM. Not knowing what else to do I framed it and hung it on the bog wall. It is in its third lavatory now.....

"Time Warp" is a term often incorrectly applied to old cars for sale. But look at this - just how I remember 'em. In fact I drove one just like it when my mate (it was his Dad's) drank too much at a party and as I didn't actually have a licence at the time we figured I had the least to lose......
Check out the mis-matched paint, rotten door bottoms arches and sills and that whip aerial - we used to flick that out of its gutter mount in multi-storeys and let it clatter against all the overhead lighting.....

I wonder how much that'll go for?
I remember a local shopkeeper having one when they first came out, it made a change from the usual Volvo 145s.

Beautiful cars, although the interior on that is quite conservative for a 180.

'The paint shows an element of flaking'
The vendor shows an element of being a humongous bell end.
