Red face OMG, should I go look at this?

I know I posted this before now, but it's living up the road from me, should I go look at it?

I've a weird fascination in what it would look like in the flesh....

I also saw this but the vinyl wrap has destroyed the car. May be worth buying if the price is right and factor in the cost of removing that ***** and repainting ??

What are the chances that you'll be able to resist?

It's in Southport?

How sad the Pennines are blocking my view.

If it's just up the road then go & have a look, why not?

Maybe i'm getting more & more ill-tempered as time passes, but whenever I see a S/C car with claims of big power the first thing I look at is the air intake tube. I do not believe any claims of massive horsepower increase anymore, unless the intake tube has been improved....

It's amazing that such a car could already be back up for sale, you would think if someone got their hands on that thing they would never let go of it...NOT

Default Shame about the wrap.

It looks like a nice clean car but for my money I can do without the wrap, with it, it's a bit too showy, now black with white leather, very cool as they say.
