Anyone know this car? it looks tidy enough and is tempting  (if the compression is good) as I love them in black.

Either this owner or the previous one stacked it into a fence at the rear - the engine was rebuilt by Rotechniks and was for sale under a year ago from Super 7 - it had 1 year remaining on the warranty then - but as you know - that won\'t be worth anything now.  I suspect the engine is still strong, but the rear body work is toast - I think it\'s beyond repair and would require reshelling.

Ah nice one fella\'s. I thought i\'d seen before. There arn\'t many near me so when you see one you tend to remember it. I might make him an offer for the wheels though.

Hmm could well be a CAT c/d as well in terms of insurance, plus 160k is a hell of a lot, would probably be needing new everything in terms of suspension etc.

The engine was rebuilt by super7s, it was only just rebuilt and was MINT and stock, I was going to get this car, but after seeing the photos I would\'nt get it. The owner bought the car, added the alloys and exhaust, smashed it up and charged a grand more for it.
