    I wouldn't, the guy who won the blue one is not picking it up the car as he had same kind of story but this time he was told before collection that it had bubbles on the arches.

    More pics as asked... These where done on my phone, as wasn't expecting this problem.




    A good side pic of the car but looking deeper shows not as clean.


    Even wet silver and blue paint running through the drain, thought spray painting you needed proper ventilation!!!

    Angry

    Whilst we there waiting, my mate texted asking to do an engine conversion of which a reply was given.

    If he had only answered or texted me back we would have come to an arrangement as the wheels could have went on my track car (I have a nova and corsa), engine/gearbox in my girls 1.2 corsa and shell used for what I wanted the car for in the first place complete valver conversion with chrome etc under the bonnet but completely standard and minted outside!

    So it would have been well worth between 700/900 quid for just me doing that...

    I took down with me GSi bumpers, side skirts and full minted interior on the basis of us doing a deal which we spoke about on the phone.

    Anyway even my mate replied saying we would still be interested but again it all went quiet, so obviously he wants to sell the car as shown on ebay which he probably will be able to again if time was put into sorting the car out.

    It will be interesting.

    ive looked at his cars on ebay and every one has always looked dodgy or sounded to good to be true

    they obviously are!!

    i think its right you are warning other people

    I was going to look at this car last night after I saw it advertised for ?1050 on AutoTrader! But someone else was on their way to look at it, and I was told on the phone this morning that it was sold.

    Think I'll be avoiding this place then...
