I went to look at this car with a view to buying it at Brightwells classic auction this time last year , would be a good base for a project but is far from perfect , the interior was superb and reflected the cars 60k mileage but the paintwork was poor and didn't reflect the £5.5 k that the car fetched hence I didn't buy it !! I had a real good look around and under it , the sills had been patched and the rear arches had been bodged and were rotten under the bodykit ( no suprise) but the floors inner wings and bulkhead looked good , it has had 2 pattern front wings fitted and not particularly well painted , all trim was good and correct apart from the red grille and a cheap 1980s red steering wheel which looks to have been replaced, this was my honest appraisal of the car , it had a £2k book price which I would have paid but it went way past that and I bailed out !!
