The "Neil Simpson" car with the nasty aftermarket spoiler and back-to-black tyres seems to have been on autotrader forever - at least two years. I remember somebody went to see it back in August 2005:

The "nice BBS wheels" turn out to be well curbed Halfords specials with budget tyres, but from a distance they look fine. They have offered to return the tailpipes to standard and see what can be done to the valance. Also the tranny fluid looks to be standard motor oil, certainly not red, but clean and the box has been refurbished. The CD changer is also missing from the boot, though there is a single slot head unit in the dash.

Doesn't sound like it's worth anything like £4995. Compare it to the other beauties currently on autotrader for less money. I'm surprised they haven't dumped it on ebay just to get rid of it - if they are really lucky they might get £1200. |
