I have to say, while it's not my aesthetic, I do admire their creativity, esp. with the door panel inserts.

Steelies and some cheapy black covers.

I'm a big fan of this type of advert, honest and entertaining. Surprisingly high asking price though, at least the for UK. About 50% over-priced vs the UK market for such condition.

I beg to differ.. The ad clearly said it is $2K in parts....the owner knows what she/he has.. no low ballers .
