Haven't you got enough cars already mate?....and none of them going brooooom!

Saying that, it is very tempting....wonder if they'll take a part ex S4?........ stoppit! You got me started now!

Only downside is no Rear wing!

[Bibs]

It's the GT, it's not mean to have one and will have the longer transom fitted.

[Tentenths]

Too late anyway!

[Kimbers]

Should still have a wing..........or it just ain't right!

[esprit350]

GT be it V8 or 3 means no wing, Alex shows the way,....

[Kimbers]

No Wing, no buy...sorry! It's what I love about the car!

This one has been for sale for a while. The original advert is still on LEW, right at the bottom of the page dated 10/02/06. Jeff (Jai on here) and I went to look at it ages ago with a view to him buying it.

It was looking vey unloved back then having being kept standing outside for far too long. Headlights had all corroded and were still full of water, exhaust box was hanging off, engine bay was messy, interior was tired and had damage in places, paintwork had 'issues'.

Despite travelling up to Leicester to view it (a long way from down sarf!) we didn't even bother to take it for a test drive. The owners were keen to do a deal and get out of it and were willing to chop a sizeable chunk off the asking price but even that wasn't enough to sway either of us!

It looks like they've managed to pass it on to a trader (ironically not too far from me) who hopefully has spent some money on it to bring it up to a presentable condition.
