Thats going to need a whole load of money to put right....but a perfect project for someone who can do the work themselves. Car is all there, so it can rise from the dead.

i dont think it would be economically viable as these cars do be far worse in the places you cant see lol

and i certainly wouldnt pour a load of money into a car with a 140k on the clock

Poor thing, I'd say its a parts donor for someone else's RS turbo, not beyond saving, just not sure it would make financial sense to rebuild.
