"THIS IS A VERY QUICK MOTOR. STARTS STOPS AND DOES WHAT IT SHOULD.

FAILED MOT ON REAR BRAKES"
Is that not a bit of a contradiction :-/

I think there is some rather clever art work,  certainly different.. :) judging from the pictures, which may or may not be quited so good on close inspection...as for the rest well...........buyer beware..

I don't know what's wrong with me but I think that's quite funky and different.

Have to have a closer look though

I think it's quite different, if the paint work is as good as it looks then in close up it could be stunning, better than some chav mobiles. Have put it in my watch to see what he gets.

Not to be unkind to the seller, but the word delusional is presently in my mind for some reason.

Insofar as the thread title is concerned, I go for 'in a state' :y

He could of at least gave it a clean, although i dont think any amount of washing is going to get that big black mark off the paint work ;D

I don't like it but can see the appeal. As said, if it's as good as it looks it is a very different car :y

£400 for a R Plate with no MOT though :o :o :o

I like it (takes cover)...it's just a car and someone has had some fun with it - doesn't look like it was a car that anyone needed to get too precious about pre paint job anyway.

Won't be bidding tho'..other half is away for a few days - can't imagine the reaction if she came home to this in the drive
 :) :) :)

I think 400 quid is a good price, the bumpers and alloys are almost worth that.

I reckon he was on an acid trip when he painted it! and he was definately on a 'reality enhancer' when he priced it ;D

So I should definitely bid??

Be careful how you reply Mark, you might be called as a witness for the defence..

Edit - you too Lazydocker :)

just pondering if it's worth it to someone for £400 for the body kit bits and rims.....    and maybe other bits......  for about 5 seconds i thought it was graffiti , then for another 5 seconds i thought i liked it a little, then i woke up and realised it was horrid....

i saw this today its now parked in a car park with no tax.the leather looks okay the wheels need a very very good clean and have a few marks on.the "paint job" up close is rubbish and is faded in lots of places {matt in some places and glossey in others.}has a nice sticker on the back in green saying compressed gas.he also ha a tidy silver estate as well so i bet a few parts have been swaped.
ps its also got badley painted red brake calipers!!!
