Default Red RS500.....

i smelt billy bullshit here straight away but here goes

a mate of mine, a guy who delivers to his work, from what i can gather hes a bit of a chav, punto convertable on 18inch chromes etc etc, mini with a bodykit bla bla bla

anyways apparnetly this guy bought an RS500 about 4 weeks ago

he said there were only 500 of em made (explaining to my mate cos he knows nothing about cars)

and hes shown him a few pics on his phone.

apprently he's paid £12k for it, some guys spent £45k on it and its red

now instantly i knew if this car existed someone would know about it

cos i think this guy is chatting bubbles, but just wanted to make sure

well i'd say if its had 45K spent on it then it could be red, but a std good 500 wil go for 12K+ so if its had that spent on it sum1ns lost out bigtime!!

I shut my eyes and I can see:-

A red 1.6l Sierra
Fibreglass wing nailed to the bootlid
A jigsawed front grill with chicken wire
A set of Halfords finest spinner hucaps

And enough Burburry and BS to sink a rather large battleship

Mmmmmm
