IMO, these are the only places that you stand the best chance of getting a cared for example. What puts me off this one is the body kit ……. it makes me think boy racer for some reason.

The alloy rings (inc speakers) could probably claw £75 back I'd certainly view if I was looking PS. this car is nothing to do with me. 997 C4S
