great description...

beautiful car recently renewed with tires exhaust system and starlight roof system with different colours remote control two keys, who ever would like to find insurance that's cheap, please look only for American group insurances because it's really cheap and available since it's not a British carExterior colour: wrapped in purple but original colour is blackInterior: off white with blackEngine size: 3.6Road tax :20 month Exhaust system with remote control.Reverse camera ( new sets for you as a spare) There is no problem with the exchange Purple, £25,000


I'd be curious to see if that's either a US write-off or a Dubai import (I'd put money on it). Badly fitted Hellcat bonnet, Hellcat trimmed seats, dreadful colour wrap (I love Plum Crazy but this ain't it), base-model (given the I.C.E. display), been for sale for quite some time

If a pedestrian didn't see that coming (not sure how ?) they would be spliced to pieces wouldn't they ?!

As per the post above, a system where the exhaust valve / silencing can also be opened / closed by a seperate remote control switch or app on a mobile, rather than just by a preset boost pressure / rev limit - something like the addition below.

You must be nearish to me as that popped up on my FB too. What adult drives around in a Focus with Buzz Light-year all over it? Seems a bit odd...

Agree, very odd. After seeing the FB ad I had a vague memory of seeing what could have been in it the Tadley Esso on driving past recently. I didn't stop though and hadn't realised they had a Buzz Lightyear fetish.

It’s just a bit of fun isn’t it?

It’s no where near the worst car that’s appeared. It has a cohesive theme and none of the mods seem to be actively dangerous.

Definitely a bit weird…

I wonder if the owner has a big chin?
