Looks ok in the photos...isn't it a bit harsh starting a thread like this?
I recall some other cars up for sale which had some interesting history
caveat emptor seems more apt than whistle blowing

this car is known to have been severly damaged on various occasions...i also believe the car was rebuilt down south from a guy who aint so good.....so they say ..of which any enthusiast will know..i viewed the car and was appalled with its condition as was ''wildoliver'' on here.... im sure someone on here has pictures of the car at oulton trashed..... you asked ...i replied !
I FIND IT HARD TO BELIEVE TECH 9 REPAIRED THIS CAR...the body panels were all over the place....maybe they repaired it on its first prang ..what about the others....

This car has been repaired by TECH 9 not from someone from down south, as I have said its a track car and is not perfect.
i made that same offer over a year ago...mind your own business if yah dont like it mr clubsport
clubsport said:
I feel bad for the seller, he advertised the car at a fair price awaiting enquiry and inspection, as for a trader assasinating a car on a public forum and then proceeding to make an offer, it beggars belief 
Hopefully someone will buy the car and continue to enjoy it on track.

Is a public forum now your place of business?......I just don't think it is a particularly good precident to set, where every car which comes up for sale is discussed on here with the view of buying it cheaper.clubsport said:

I'm not a dealer (well I am but not in this field, I sell classics, the only newish Porkers I sell are my own) If this is "The car" and it is a big if (although not anymore) then the car is simply bent. No debate about that it is bent. It needs to get it right:
Rear wings removing.
Front wings removing.
Doors and bonnet removing.
Car checking seriously for alignment, and then the panels refitting properly.
That might sound easy but I assure you it isn't, even if it was only the front end panels to be realigned it is a big and skilled job, the rear wings are a massive job they are welded on. This all assumes when you strip it down you don't discover the multitude of horrors I'd expect to find. Because you do not end up with panel gaps of those kind, and especially the rear wing issues if the wings were properly replaced, it suggests that the rear wings were pulled out after the smash and liberal amounts of filler used.
Couple that to the oil leaks, and the grotty mag wheels that needed major remedial work, and to get the car right is not a simple job. And that is why it isn't worth 35k. Now if this is news to the seller I feel for him, he bought it from people who are sharp to be kind, but I suspect he has discovered it and is trying to move it on, sadly the car is not value for money, and 35k would buy you a better LHD rs, maybe would need hunting for, but would be hard to find a poorer example, personally I prefer buying smashed cars to badly repaired smashed cars, at least you can see the issues.
No way will tech 9 have done that bodywork by the way, and if they did take it back.
This isn't an attempt at character assassination by the way, I have nothing to win from that, but that 18k offer was a fair one, and it was more than mine, doesn't matter whether your pitching it as a track car/rough and ready car, it is too much money. Money would be better spent RSing a C2.

Go on then put your money where your mouth is
Samba you'll be with me on this one, don't you love it when someone comes to you saying their mate/glasses guide/bloke down the road said their car was worth far more than you offered, but then when you ask them if they'll bid you on it the answer is always the same "he doesn't want it".
I hope he does sell the car, I just hope it gets bought by someone who knows what it is.

chris..when i viewed this car it was in terrible condition as the majority know from private e-mails floating around....thats all i was trying to say...there is a large thread on it on pcgb also been plenty of threads on here...the guy has obviously had service work carried out on the car by yes 'tech9' a respectable company...the body on the car was terrible when i viewed it at GC MOTORS ...
