Makes some of those rs500s look exspensive, this car is far superior technically.

would buy it myself, if it was a bit cheaper, but would cost me a fair bit to put back to my taste

Yep it's a Superb example and Steve is a very good pal of mine, as said, i also prefered the Recaro Interior and the other grill as Steve knows, BUT imo easy fixes those, well interior to find these days wouldn't that easy i guess, but as a whole package the car is stunning.....

Yep dont like that grill one bit but its immaculate !

Seriously though without replacing half of the underside what do you do when your out in it and get caught in bad weather !

I just don't have the patience to keep something that mint, clean yes but as mint as the day you put it together, not a chance !
