I pretty much Posted the whole ad, hehe.

Oh, and for you yanks, that price, as of now is $3,816.37 USD.

I'd buy it, if i had the money, but sadly no

Thanks Zep,

A little to early for me as I'm not back until Sept. I'm also after an original base car...then slowly add what I want. The idea is if I ever want to put it back to original, then I'll have all the original parts...this one on offer does not and I'd not want to buy somebody's ex weekend fun car...chances are that engine has had a hard time of it. I'm sure someone will want it though and I'm sure he will accept less due to what I have said above....quite a bit less I think.

I'll keep lookin though.

Cheers

Thats cool, I didn't really think that you'd want it, but I was just letting ya know.

Nice one Zep....keep me posted.
