From memory the one at Fitz had a fairly big shunt but was repaired properly and the seller & Peter were very transparent about the work done. Worth checking out throughly as always. Its the ex RM car that was looked after by Fitz. Not a big shunt at all... but it did have some repair work & wouldn't scare me off at all, the guys that repaired it are top notch hugh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm tipping the car never sold when it was on the market a year back (in Brookvale as well and same photo on the concrete factory drive) for at least 4 months and he was asking $80 then down to about $68 iirc. He made a song and dance about how much each hottie item was worth back then in his ad. I came very close to calling him near the end but was waiting for the next price drop before I attacked DJM 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I think he comes from an alternate universe where aftermarket performance mods add more than they cost to the car - and are worth more than they cost as second hand parts too!
