1980 MGB LE - This is a very, very nice rubber bumper MGB.

Black is a great color on later MGBs, as it (sort of) blends in with the black rubber bumpers.

"LE" stood for Limited Edition, but it seems like it was limited only by the number MG could sell. Between 1979 and 1980, MG built over 6000 of these cars. All US LEs were painted black and came with a front spoiler, alloy wheels with 185/70/14 tires, Limited Edition tape (which is not on this car and is no big loss), a 14" leather and alloy steering wheel, black Coco Mats and a dash badge.

This car recently had a "no expense spared" restoration and looks great.

1973 Rolls Royce Silver Shadow - I've never had any desire to own a Rolls Royce. I respect them, I just don't need to own one. But, if an RR is your thing, this could be a bargain.

The seller says he got it in his divorce settlement. He now needs cash more than he needs the car. He's asking $9,999.00 and says he's "motivated".

Here's your chance to own a Rolls Royce for the price of a used Hyundai. Just remember that the car's first major service could cost you around the price of a used Hyundai (or at least a Kia), too.

1989 Citroen (CXA) CX Prestige - Show the world how brave you are... Take this car on as a restoration project.

This is a pretty rough Citroen, but it runs and drives.

Restoring this car would be a difficult task. Citroen's are complex cars and parts are, for all intents and purposes, non-existent in the US. Still, this is a car that deserves to be restored.
