AC93 Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 On eBay: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/252943821578 Does anyone know this car? I'm sorry but £7,000 for a Cat C n/a auto with a cable tied front bumper?! Not quite sure on how close of a 'replica' it is either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Bullitt Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 (edited) It looks like something that dodgy dealer at Restless Customs would tart up with a quick blow over and sell. Look at the panel lines at the front of car and the cable ties holding the front bumper on. The corners where the front bumper meets the wing, the missing bolts from the front wings and the bent rusty slam panel. Look at the arms that the front wings bolt to, they don't look to be in great condition either. The missing weather strip, missing fan shroud, multi coloured rubber hose, dodgy intake, rusty metal panel in front if it, poorly fitted & painted body kit. Fake 19" BBK wheels, I bet the ride is sublime! I'm guessing the cat C relates to a front end write off. Someone is chancing their arm. Edited May 17, 2017 by Frank Bullitt Spelling.

rider Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 In 2008, a NA auto would have been worth around £1500 so could have been written of by an insurer for a scratched bumper. Still £7k does seem a bit of a long shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Bullitt Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 No chance, that car has been involved in a big front crash and poorly repaired by the looks of it. VIC checks aren't worth squat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dnk Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 Read the mot history, it looks and sounds like a shed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank Bullitt Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 also looks like the battery is un secured Weight saving? Also note the angle of the OEM radiator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
