That's disgusting.

Any potential buyers want to check for signs and history of accident damage, VERY carefully...  :-X

Don't think it looks too bad, certainly different. :)

Considering the price, wouldn't have done any harm if they'd have at least gotten the hoover out (see pics of back seat).

I never thought of that one... would seem odd driving a barge that's hauled so many Stiff's around....

Either way, their description is not forthcoming  :D

 ;D We had a black estate for some years, and the local coop still use them, though the 'black' was different,  the coop, pure gloss black which that black and silver one has, and it has low mileage. :)

That's the problem. Got a new PT cruiser last year, did not have it long, it was black, looked great clean, but got mucky so quickly. I now have a silver grey Citroen, has not been washed since April and still looks OK'ish. ::) ::) ::)

Certain local authorities ( Leeds springs to mind ) insist that their licenced taxis have a black bonnet and boot to identify them. Not the bumper though, me thinks a fender bender has occurred.

Trying to emulate the old RR / Bentley duo tones ... but must admit my first thought was ex taxi or PH car
