I think the stripe looks ok but the 'flaps' (I never get tired hearing that word) and the interior are a bit ropey...... £8k for a write off aswell???????

I'm quite liking the fact he's making a big deal of the fact the stripes are painted on.........and thus harder to remove

I actually like the stripe, but he should have stopped there.

I saw it and thought to myself that this could be a bargain since the silly mods ie mudflaps etc could probably be removed fairly easily and I reckon this will be open to a fairly low offer soon. Then noticed it was Cat D and reckon the painted engine bay etc would be more trouble than it's worth to restore to normality.

For what it's worth I dig the stripe though :D

Not sure that having T1R's on the front and 888's on the rear is the best combo for optimum handling! :shock:
