And we get one pic of a single wheel, and then two of the bonnet, at fractionally different angles.  :-\

Hate sellers with awful pictures. I'd agree with the above... the one pic of the wheels is one too many  :)

Funny thing wheels. I personally would be unlikely to ever have non factory fitted wheels. Just a personal choice thing.

As for the advertisement, the guy hasn't done himself any favours with his words and definitely not with the pictures. If the car was indeed rare e.g. cream leather then the words and photos should have shown that. No under bonnet shot. Definitely odd having non matching front and rear number plates.

I asked him about service history and he didn't answer that. Might be might not be but he could have said.

It is a bit sad as it might well have been a good car but not for me

Be fair, in one picture it's upside down so must be pretty rare.

yes, perhaps it was a special Vauxhall development in zero gravity driving.

It may, perhaps, have been a special option that was stopped as no one ordered their new Mig with it after this one................. ::)

Don't mind the wheels at all. Bet the ET is more than 39 though......

Oh no, just checked, the Fox FX004 is 38ET on a 17 rim

But 'over a £1,000' - - no chance - brand new set of 4 £369 plus postage after a quick scout round......

Car was a px at a Peugeot dealer.

Paid 700. 73k. Mot Sept with no advisories. Lots of bills and receipts. The exhaust just has a trim peice on.

Dealer was unsure about the cambelt but was sure it had been done. Found an  invoice for 600 quid for a service cambelt kit and waterpump dated june 2014 so well happy. Lots of other invoices from the dealer who did it aswell.

Bar a few stone chips and a bit of a scuff by the front number plate its very very tidy and drives as it should.
