Good Points.....

The driver's door bin is still attached! It's ready to fall off, but it's not gone yet, which again, anyone who knows about Mk2s will know this is rare!

The carpet is in good nick (always had floor mats) so it might make a useful part for someone restoring their own XR Poo?
Rear shelf: see carpet (although it hasn't been protected by floor mats).

The picture lies! Trust me - the MOT failure sheet even says "in my opionion this car is dangerous and should not be on the road" I've never seen that before

Infact I think I'll add it to the listing.

I would have taken a pic of the front showing the wonky bonnet and rusty wings, but the house was in the way.

He's the art ed on Redline. The interior was mint until I lent it to him! He flipped the passenger seat back onto the rear suspension from an M3 that happened to be sitting in the back and stuck one of the wheel studs though the vinyl

Wish I could say I was planning some quad turbo'd twin engine'd nutter, but the fact is I'm just trying to raise some $$$ to buy a house... all pretty boring really!

Not sure the sale of the Poo will be buying me many bricks!

Fear not, I'm not going all and flogging all my toys, it's just that 8 cars is probably a few more than I actually need

PS The wife killed the R32 Skyline engine the other day - superb timing

Yes, it would be fine on a K plate. The only cars it couldn't go on are E, D, C etc...

The ad is intended to make people smile, but it's also a genuine for sale listing! Would be great to see the plate live on on something cool do it!
