    2000 Toyota Alteza Beams Low Milage

    Always liked these cars, was considering getting one not that long ago. You said the front bumper and skirts have been sold, so why put pics up of them on the car? Would be best to put pics up of current state of car.

    Needing help/advice!!

    Yeah there is that option, they want 35% of the offer to get my car back. So that leaves me with £715 to replace full side of car and get a respray. Going to have to put my own money towards it which i think i should not be doing!
