Wasn't sure where to put this but here goes. I found this on pistonheads the other day and am going to look at it tomorrow (the guy said he won't sell it to anyone until I've seen it :) ) - it has a very distinctive paint job so wondered if anyone has seen this car before? Anybody know anything about it??

Hey! You bought the car? We seem to be coming from differeing angles. I liked the paintjob - thought it looked awesome! Certainly eyecatching. I didn't like the way it drives though...just felt like when you put your foot down the power is leaking out somewhere :S. There was also a slight rattle I could here and the guy said it was the heatshield...I wasn't convinced...Wish you the best of luck with the car though cos it does look pretty awesome :D

I went up to help her pick it up, I think the clutch is on it's way out coz it felt horrible compared to mine. Awsome little car for the money tho, had a quick drive in service station and it stick to the road bloody good

The clutch was slipping thats all, the rattle was the heatshiled and it got me home 300 miles fine :-)

Good times! I gotta be honest though - you HAVE to keep the paint job (stickers actually weren't they?) I thought it looked brutally cool! Just didn't like how it drove...would love to see this car brought up to scratch! Glad it's going to a good home where it will be cared for :D
