No accounting for taste....

Post by fossie » Thu Feb 11, 2021 8:31 am

Someone did this intentionally :o
This seller bought it :shock: To give it a chance of been able to be seen out in the daylight again, so. He says ;) But didn't because it been mullered more than he thought I suspect. :)
Now somebody is willing to put hard earned into it Again , I wonder if it's a rescue package , OR a check shirted skinny jeans designer stubble type ;)

The front mudguard looks as if it has been hand crafted from a baked bean can by a 20 stone gorilla.

Nothing screams poor workmanship quite like wrinkles in your duct tape.

300 Pounds, seems like a great deal, for that pipe and shocks that, then resell the carcas.

I had that car in it, the Nissan, looks like it's called a Cefiro there, here it was an Infiniti I30, total rip off of BMW names. Anyhoo, I had the only stick shift of that car imported.

Back to the listing ...the seller realised that he was going to end up selling it for what the world thought was a tad too much , so withdrew it and it slapped it back on with a reserve to ensure it will probably never sell :shock:
