Sounds like the one that was on sale with Sky Motors for a couple of months. 4250 quid, I went to look at it.

Was is spoilerless?

Dunno why, it was quite a nice car, I just didn't like the staff there and wasn't giving them my money. Plus I found a Mivec for not a lot more which had a few other things going for it and I fell in love with it.

Where'd you get it sprayed out of interest, and did they do a good job? I'm thinking of a respray in the next few months so I'm curious.

1200 doesn't strike me as being bad if they did the full car and they did a proper job..
