car is now up for sale, its been sorned as has just run outta tax but if someone wants to take it i dont mind retaxing it for them [will obviously be added onto price]. sad to see it go and gonna miss it like mad espically when it comes to the summer time but the missus says its gotta go
im gona leave it on here for a while and if theres no interest it wil be broken for parts. please keep this thread to a for sale thread and ill start a breaking thread soon.
the price is a non negotiable £2500 i cant afford to let it go for any less than this and it will be broken for alot more if it comes to it!, also i think if someone was to buy it and take what they wanted they could still make plenty of money back.
this car is far far from mint, its a track car and the bodywork reflects it however as ive said before its got it everywhere it counts
