    It has the correct steering wheel centre, but for for a "very rare" full leather interior it has the wrong gear knob (plastic covered, not leather). Also looks like it may have had/has aircon as the A/C - ECON buttons are on the heater controls and it has the old style non LED 3rd brake light.
    Black is not a colour ! .... Its the absence of colour

    The guy selling it is an absolute tool, I sent some polite questions and got very rude replies, he couldn't even be bothered to tell me if it had a supercharged engine or not, the last reply from him was "JUST LEAVE THE CAR"

    Moron, buyer beware.

    Something is wrong with it for sure. Check out the negative feedback on a Lancia Beta he sold. I'm not sure what to make of it.

    The reason I think it is a US car Jimi is the silly reflectors on the sides at the front and back. That is silly money for a left hand drive car, I think it will appear on Ebay again in a few days
