Welcome to Robert’s Car Spares Shop on eBid.

I have acquired a lot of spare parts from former MG Rover dealerships that went into liquidation following the collapse of the MG Rover Group.

Included in the stock was the right side (driver's side in the UK) door mirror cover

This is a new unused Rover item. It comes with a Rover label. The part number is CRC100430GMN.

The MG Rover catalogue gives the following applications and details:

      For Rover 75, MG ZT models with VIN up to 255986 and with year identifier up to 2D.

      Right side

      White Gold 2 (a silver effect colour with just a gentle hint of gold)

      For both left hand drive cars and right hand drive cars.

I am sorry but have not been able to get a photo that accurately reflects the colour of this mirror cover.

MG Rover produced more than one shade of White Gold so please double check that my shade is what is needed for your car. 

If you are not sure what paint your car has, please have a look at the small metal plate that gives the VIN (vehicle Identification Number) for your car. It is usually found in the engine bay or in a door recess. It should also give a three letter code which is the paint code for your car. If this code is the same as the last three letters of my part number, then the colour of my mirror cover is correct for your car.

Please note the bulge in the moulding for where the door mirror connects to the door. This cover is for a door mirror which has a small ‘arm’ as it comes away from the door and where the profile of the arm carries through into the shape of the door mirror cover.

Postage to UK addresses will be £2.16 by second class post. Buyer may collect to save the postage. I am in West London near Heathrow.

This item can be posted overseas by standard mail services. Could overseas please enquire for an estimate of postage costs before buying.

Terms and Conditions

Although I try to provide a friendly and efficient service, I have also to comply with the legislation governing on-line trading. The following are the general terms and conditions relating to all my online fixed price and auctions trading. They apply as appropriate to this particular listing. Please do not be put off by the length of these terms and conditions. They are designed to help you know what your rights and responsibilities are in this transaction.

My eBid Shop is operated as a commercial business. From time to time I might also list items which I had not bought originally for resale.

My eBid listings are offers to sell. Purchasers will be deemed to have accepted the offer to sell and to have entered into a legally binding contract which will be effective from my e-mail confirmation that payment has been accepted from the buyer and that the purchase(s) is(are) about to be despatched. The contract will be deemed to be made under English law which will apply in the case of dispute. These terms and conditions are part of the contract.

Please ensure that payment for your purchase is received by myself within 14 calendar days of purchase date. If payment has not been received by then, I reserve the right to cancel the transaction and to relist on eBid or to sell elsewhere.

Payment is accepted from UK purchasers by cash on collection, postal order, cheque, banker’s draft, Nochex, Google Checkout and PayPal.

Payment is accepted from overseas purchasers only by Google Checkout and by PayPal. I do not accept banker’s drafts from overseas purchasers and do not give out my bank account details for wired funds transfer from overseas.

It is a condition of sale that purchasers agree to reimburse me for any bank costs incurred in connection with returned cheques.

Delivery within the UK will normally be by second class post or by parcel post unless specified otherwise and will take up to 5 days generally to reach purchasers after despatch. Goods paid for by cheque will be despatched after 10 days has been allowed for the cheque to pass through the banking system. If purchasers wish for alternative methods of delivery including faster delivery, please contact me to discuss before buying.

Delivery outside of the UK will be by normal postal services where possible. It might be necessary for larger or heavier items to be shipped by other methods including courier which will be expensive. Overseas purchasers should contact me for estimates of postage or delivery costs before bidding. Although the eBid system shows overseas postage at zero, there will be a charge to send overseas.

Purchasers from outside of the United Kingdom are solely responsible for paying any taxes due on their purchase such as sales tax and import tax.

No guarantee is given as to the likely serviceable life of used car parts and the purchaser makes an acceptance to purchase a used car part on the basis that its remaining service life will be less than for a new part and could be limited.

Return instructions:

·       It is a term of the contract that all goods subject to refunds will need to be returned to me by purchasers. In all cases, purchasers should keep items safely on their own premises and await my instructions before returning to me. Goods should not be returned until I have given an instruction to do so. Please retain the original manufacturer’s packing to return goods in. 

When fitting a car part supplied by me, it is the sole responsibility of the purchaser to decide whether it is safe to fit the part. In particular, any part purchased from me should be checked for match of physical dimensions, external appearance and part number to the part being replaced on your car. Sometimes, the part that is being replaced on an old car will not be the same as the manufacturer’s original specification and there will have been some modification against the original specification for your car. A replacement part purchased from myself with the correct original specification might now not be appropriate to fit. Please remember that a faulty car can kill. Do not take any risk with replacement parts. Seek professional advice as appropriate when replacing parts.

I will retain your personal details (name and address, details of purchase) for 90 days after the date of purchase (close of the eBid listing) in case there are any issues arising from the purchase. I will then delete the personal details in compliance with Data Protection legislation. By entering into contract to purchase from me, the purchaser accepts that I may hold his/her personal details for up to 90 days.

Thank you.
