I like it, nice paint job, though I would have carried on the stripes down the back bumper.

So what engine is that - a Ford V6 bored out?

might be interesting to have a look at. something odd about it. the rear of the car and the steering wheel suggests its a early car, but the front wings suggest a later one...

Front looks nice.
Shame it did not do the back to match.

Nut sure on the big stripe.

Hmmm

At the risk of sounding offensive, the only positive thing I found about the car, were the seats.....so Ive emailed him to find out what they are rofl

Interior and seats look great, stripes not so much, black front has no character (but it might just be the photo)- IMHO smile

The Tazzer was owned by Keith Pulham over in Latchingdon, essex. He borrowed my 400 front mould and made a front section which he grafted on. ( Keith being in the GRP business )
When Keith sold the car some 6?? years ago it was red with knackered seats. The engine is a 2.8 injection which left the factory as a special order larger capacity, but iam not sure how true this is. The owner before Keith, from memory, used the car on some track days. The car was bought buy Keith with minor body damage and may be recorded.

I prefer the door sills on a 280i to a 350i - If I see a pair for sale I intend to swap them over before re-spraying my car. Good paint job and interesting seats though....

Nice and very very tempting.

Finances are stupid tight at the moment though (damn mortgage rates) and the girlfriend would have my nuts on a skewer if I started ebaying bits for the car, especially as it may well have to go if things aren't any better come April/May. :-( :-( - A nice 1% interest cut from the Bank of England would help ;-)
