Just up the road from me.... I've asked him a question, but he's not
included it in the auction.....

'Let me get this straight..... this is an auction to decide how much
you're going to pay the winner to take the car away? - I assume the
winner also gets a paper bag for their head so people can't see them
driving it? You've ruined a perfectly good and rare 75 with all that
stick on tat, and what is that 'resistor' mod all about - it does
nothing and it's a really shonky wiring job. I'll do you a favour - give
me 500 quid and I'll take it off your hands.'

What an arse. Ruining what looks like a fairly tidy 75 V6 like that.

If it were standard, he'd probably be looking at the thick end of a
grand for it.

lol - I saw that in another place.... reminds me of when I went to a Lancia
Owners Club meeting once and someone entered a chavved up Beta (complete
with 10ft CB aerial) into the concours to many titters!

It's on its second time round ebay.

If you had could only choose one or the other, which would you get rid of -
the under-car green neon lights or the ones in the footwells?

1 match would sort it all. That is just *so* unpleasant.

I wouldn't waste a match... unless it was one of those free ones you get in
Bars and Hotels ;)
