The steering rack has over spray on it so the chassis has been touched up at some point in the past. The seat covers to my eye don't look to be particularly well fitted either.
Edit - are those screws holding the door trim panels down?!?
Completely agreed, I wasn't suggesting anyone should buy it without a good inspection
As for paint... it only has any value if there is paperwork to support it, I'm a massive advocate of painted cars - with a history to them - being retained as painted cars though to be honest if the owner wants to strip their car that's their choice.
I'll admit I was a little sad to see Alistair V's old car stripped as it had so much documentation about Berger Paints painting it as a promotional tool, but who am I to tell people what to do with their property.
This car certainly warrants a good look around.
I get the impression this guy bought it and shipped it just to sell and hopefully make money, nothing wrong with that, but it probably means a deal can be negotiated on price.
