I had to sva it, register it etc. It's a nightmare! This one is sva'd and road registered! It may need cosmetic work but the engine is sweet, gearbox too, and it's 4wd and supposedly 270bhp.
It may look horrible to some people, but on the way home there were endless people taking pics of it, it got quite embarrasing.
It's on the button and I've cleaned it up a bit now, done some blacking on it, it could be a real good car if some time was spent on it.
As I said, £2500 was a bargain but still a chance I took. Also with all the Messers you get on eBay, it may not even sell so I'm not counting my chickens just yet
