Never ceases to amaze me how so many people class their cars as 'show cars'!

...and of those show cars 99.9% look dodgy / botched / cut'n'shut / crashed into halfords tacky section / dressed in ebay tat / illegal / dangerous / embarrasing *

Hey Boss....

.....`de plane! ;D

You genuinely beat me to it Debs!  I read the thread header, then opened the link before reading the remainder of the thread.  Immediately thought - boss, de plane, de plane!!   ;D

Deliberately ignored the price when I expanded the pics on the e-bay page and then watched the ripples in the ocean reflected in the body panels.  Gazed at the clip size difference between the drivers door top and the rear quarter....

Yup, its a show car.  As long as you don't mind getting ripped as to your taste.  I'll keep my memories and my dosh for something more respectable, thanks....

Ta for the link, Guy.   Made my evening....   :y
