I remember when that thing was just bought. Sounds like it's being improved tastefully

wondered where that hunk went!

it use to be a nice car 10+ years ago, was gloss black with a panther airbrushed on the bonnet, the sold to a guy who has an unhealthy obsession with glittery pink and overaccesorising, then when he was done by hoonlaws (this guy is 40 odd)and asked for an engineers he whacked it on ebay!
You'll be happy to know the last owner still has a glittery pink slr replica and unfortunately still waves at me... :/

Good luck, you'll never know what you'll find!
