Cheap to buy, but having stood for 2 years it's going to need careful attention before it's running again

You know if I were looking for say, a celica GT4 or something, I'd be looking on the forums for cars for sale. I wonder if the same happens here.

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.

I'd not be so quick to dismiss, after all what is the value if the shell is sound and has a re-spray and looks quite tidy under bonnet. The alloy rings (inc speakers) could probably claw £75 back tongue I'd certainly view if I was looking

PS. this car is nothing to do with me.

^+1. I also quite like the front and back end treatment.

We must all do our part for the planet.
I unplugged a row of electric cars that nobody was using.
I even unplugged my own.

That'll be 105,000 miles no doubt…. Otherwise the mileage would be played on in the ad ……… SURELY?!?

This is a fine example of one thing I never got about some modded Coops.

Why have standard black sills on an otherwise heavily modded Coop?

At least have the sills colour coded, right?!? confused

Looks as if it's gone. I think it was well worth a punt at £700.
