Just seen this on ebay.
Seller actually thinks the rear spoiler makes it look better, and as for those headlight things.
Oh dear!!

It could be worse, it could have a sheep in the boot and some dodgey paintwork(points to the sig^^^^)

LOL!!!!

The sheep is for sunday dinner, also detracts theives from the car!!

Your paintwork gets like that from years of misuse and neglect, someone once told me you were best removing tar spots with a blow torch, been using his advice for years although I don't think it does the paint much good!!

We usually can get pheasants in the grill if lucky too..

Back to the topic, it's the first time I've seen a green coop and sort of liked the colour.
Think someone should tell the seller the guy in the pic has had his stereo though.
The more I look at it the more I want to rip off those headlamp things!!!
The wheels look good on it though.

I notice he says "ONLY ONE PREIVIOUS LADY OWNER".

Funny, this is what the RAC site came back with.

Model COUPE 20V TURBO
Body type COUPE
Colour GREEN
Fuel type PETROL
Date manufactured 31 December 1998
Number of previous owners 5
Last owner change 06 October 2005

Wanted to post a question about this, but couldnt find my log on to ebay.

What a joke. The car and the owner for selling it with false descriptions. Not the 280bhp bit but the spoiler improving looks!

It's certainly interesting that he has posted some up to date photos now, but that they don't show any of the front of the car, considering the condition that it was in on the 20 Jan auction .

Also, if he only bought it in Jan 2006, how did he get photos of it in 2002 !!!

I'm not sure that there is a barge pole long enough for this one !

Want a laugh.. I decided to email the chap to see what replies I would get..

My email to him
Interesting car mate..

How come its got 280bhp, as they come in 220bhp as standard?

Can you email me bigger and more pictures of it?

Who is the bloke in one of the pics?

Lastly where is the stereo?

btw: when was the last service done and by whom?

If i dont get a reply.. i will take it there are undisclosed problems with it.

cheers

He only registered 12th Jan and his two bidders have no feedback and one of them only registered 26th Feb.

Seller added this comment 26th Feb: This car has had 5 owners not 1.

Does look a nice car though
