Guys I bought it, there really was no rust any where on the car, every panels replaced, the paint work is great apart from one run in the paint on the bonnet. plus its has loads of extra parts included so im happy with it.

Thanks for your help.

£2.4 k seems alot, Id wait untill something comes along that youd bite the guys arm off for, if its exactly how you want to keep the car and its got 12 months T&T it might be worth it, however taking a read of the buying guide on the forum would be usefull, going around with a magnet and keen eye might get some more knocked off.

yeah i wouldnt really change it maybe lowered suspension, thats about it, yeah i am going to go over it with a fine tooth pick, yeah i am taking my magnet to check for filler, and ripping the carpets up etc.

Thanks for the advice.

I'd have my doubts - if someone owns a booth I'd expect them to be professional enough to mask up properly.

You need to look at the car closely and make your assessment of whether it is worth what you can afford, or are willing to pay. I wouldn't value it anywhere near £2.4k

I'm 90% sure this is the car from my camp. He keeps it under a cover most days but i saw him revving it the other evening but didn't seem to be going anywhere. Don't know anything about the car
