Thats the one mate

All 4 arches are very scabby

Drivers seat has 3" slash and white paint over it

Front and rear bumpers are a mess

Boot lock is missing

Drivers door has cracked filler round the lock

N/s rear quater has bad damage

The car is just very very scruffy

This is IMO , i am just warning people to view before you bid as when you speek the the owner the picture he paints is done through rose tinted classes and not the same car he described as the one i looked at

Just want people to know the car isnt what the owner says it is thats all

Not telling anyone not to buy it if the want it , just to look before they bid and commit to buying it

Never shure if this sort of post is a good thing to do as some people will say i am out of order , but , as i say the bloke who owns this car told me it was in mint condition and that the only paint it needed was the front bumper

To be fair the engine is new , so it could be a nice car its just it needs major bodywork and repairs to the interior , the problem i have is how the owner tells you its mint when it is far from it
