And i wonder how many of our cars are actually in similar condition but on the road???...I know mines not perfect...Some bushes on it are as old as the car so stop mumbling and stumbling and get it bought FFS!!!

Looks damn good to me and I can vouch for the fact that the exterior colour and the brown interior grows on you - mine gets lots of admiring comments! It's just so 80's.

Any used car purchase is a gamble and this looks like an honest car from a distance; I'd take unloved and original over pimped and shiney any day...

The owner as asked me to thank you all for your interest - and the car as now sold.

Its off to the USA - to a collector who seems to have a number of cars and as just added one more!

...and for those who really have to ask: a very fair price was agreed and both parties are happy with the outcome...

...tongue out
