   Seen this going for £350 in my area, It has 8month MOT and 8weeks left on tax.
   All that needs doing is the arches being resprayed.

   It looks like a mk2 vtr thats been front ended and a mk1 flat arch front end has been put on it? And put on badly at that. Door gap looks off as well?
   I'd leave it, even at £350.

    People might think bargain until they strip away the panels & find a twisted/bent chassis.

    To be fair, apart from the wing, and the front body work looks good from the pic, alloys look in good shape aswel. Few people said I was foolish but I spent 100 + 30 postage for my alloys with good tyres, and your getting a whole working car for 350, as long as it runs fine, and you have the money is it not worth a buy?
