R.I.P.
rear seats had fag burns all over.
drivers seat the support bar was broke, so you drove it at 45 degree's
the drivers side foot well flooded when it rained. the inner wing had gone
battery well was rusty
the rear arches were going
the part where the arches meet the skirts had rusted through
when skirts were off, i put a screw driver through almost half way down the car. if in a crash i think the car would have snapped in half and i would be dead.
cooper, nah, that was my gsi i was in at pv. this is the old gte.

There's been show winning car's built from alot worse than that! But would have been costly to restore!
