I've never been an active member on this forum but seeing as this topic is about my car I thought my input would possibly clear a few things up, unfortunately it appears to have taken quite a pasting from some members.
As I told Scott (Rubble) in my email when he asked to leave a deposit and then view the car on the 22nd June, I've been honest with the description of my car and would prefer anybody to view before committing to a purchase, I would do the same with any car I was selling, his reply to me was that he understood where I was coming from.
Anyway, perhaps my honesty has been the downfall here, I could have failed to mention the bodywork issues and just let prospective buyers find out upon arrival but that's not my style, one thing I notice that I missed out of the Pistonheads advert was the link to pictures I took and uploaded to photobucket, this includes close ups of what I've mentioned, have yourselves a look and then pass judgement on the car.

I notice a few have commented the price is too high with it being a race base model, you can reduce the asking price but not increase it and surely this is something to be negotiated at a viewing. As for trying to use the history to justify the price, totally incorrect I'm afraid, my aim was to give as much information as possible about the car and it's history, nothing more, nothing less. In my eyes a detailed advert with good pictures shows a lot, any advert I see that has a couple of badly taken pictures and a short sentence is ruled out right away.
The car has been in the country since 1997 and I'd say the condition is better than most cars of this age which have lived on UK roads, surely you can see it gets looked after.
Thanks.
