PMSL, I was 90% sure of the car you were talking about when I saw it was a link to a Saph!!
IIRC, it was sold by NYRS Spares on here a wee while ago... absolute minter that wouldn't take much to turn from the state it looks now to an uber clean standard looking Saph.
Cheers,

Looks like a good car really, even with the kit on, and a good price.

To be honest, it seems like a total bargain given the condition of it... doubt it'll be for sale for long, even looking like that.

I dislike kitted cars, but I agree ! Had alot of money spent on it and looks extremely clean. A well looked after Cosworth - that alone make it rare !

Looks pretty good to me (overall) and the God awful bodykit and bumpers wouldn't be too hard to put back to standard

I actually don't mind it, let's face it the Sapphire never was too good looking, so a non standard kit doesn't look much worse IMHO.
Of course, I own and drive a white sapphire, NOT this one though.
