ha ha..... I think the answer to "'Does one like to ......." will probably be "no" if your opening line is "what's your take on the Scandinavian Sub-Titled Murder Dramas just finished on BBC4'?"

No attractive females in rx7 spotted here, but I did just spot this :

Elford turbo, with full body kit, no tax, 1 month mot, £800. Is the red one with poor paint that was bought from RX motors about 9 months ago.

That paint's alarming, it looks like it has a disease :o I like the way he suggests transplanting the 12A turbo into a Chevette. Hopefully he means a Vauxhall rather than a Chevrolet :shock: Poor little rotary trying to shift two tons of Chevy :lol:

probably soon to have no mot as well .... plus it need a decent respray £2000+ plus the rust attending to....
If it hadn't got the turbo on it, it'd be the same as that black one on ebay with the Elford spoilers.... the seller can't shift that either.
I think £800 is a bit steep for this one with only 1 month of mot left.

Minimum £2k respray before any rust treated!

The guy is on exile. Haven't seen or heard of him for ages. I think the price is OK.

Reminds me of "The Singing Detective"
Strong money I think, doubt it will sell, I have been wrong before though (a long time ago) :D
