and it's got delivery miles on it.

dont click it if you laugh easily....

k?

One off presumably because they couldnt get enough one one colour to do the car, so the front is a different colout to the rear?

Or is it one off in reference to the IQ points to being 'special' of the person who thinks this is a good deal?

moar pics!

That's at quite a good (have lots of interesting cars good) garage in Bristol. Look at a mk1 MR2 there a couple of years ago, well over priced but in good nick. I guess they're not getting many sniffs at it if it's off to auction.

I disagree with the claim that the paintwork blends from front to rear - it's just panels stuck together in a mish-mash. That interior is hideous, like a bad sci-fi set. Mind you it was 1988...

[MadduckUK]

if it is indeed a 1.8 GTE i would have thought the specifics of the engine would have been worth a mention, did vauxhall ever make a race spec 1.8 that could have been put in it?

am i getting carried away?

edit: apparently the mk1 (this is a mk2) GTE had a 1.8, odd

[Butcher]

Interior is not bad, given the period. Bodywork is just gash though. The front wings look like they were torn off a different car and hamfistedly bolted on.

[GheeTsar]

This is a spoof, isn't it?

[kalniel]

How much are you asking for it Zak?

[danroyle]

it looks like a really bad match up Cut "n" Shut done by a colour blind person.

[DanceswithUnix]

So, a coat of Dulux and you get a brand new car for 7K?

Nah, still not tempted

That car has been on Pistonheads for a year or more.

I doubt it will sell soon, the only person who is going to buy it for 10k is a collector, and the fact its been on Pistonheads for so long we make me assume its overpriced, if the price was lowered it would probably sell a lot faster, or the garage can just keep it in their collection.

[Tumble]

That looks hideous
