VCAR = vehicle condition alert register. V-Car means the car has been an insurance write-off at some point during it's life

Certainly one of the cheapest way into one of these cars, in terms of purchase price at least.

Obviously, the usual care is required, not only to interogate the reasons for the V car status, but also the usual proper checks too, to ascertain condition.

Crimp a Length!

Never be an investment though as it states in the advert.
Looks cool and tidy though.

Really? Are you saying that it started life as a turbo, got biffed and then they reshelled it using a narrow body?

More of a Carrera 2 'S' than a turbo then?!

At least, if it's been re-shelled it should be straight and safe.
The turbo body conversion is just the rear wings, side cills and lower cill
section of the front wings. 'Factory fitted aero kit' might be stretching the truth
a little?! Original equipment areo kit maybe!

For someone looking for a car to drive and enjoy without depreciation worries,
it might make a good car?!

Not if you went along looking for forced induction it would seem!

Where does it say that it's re-shelled?

You are assuming that a new shell was used and that it was done by a competent person.
