@@michael5089 Cheers,
I’ll be honest, I only subscribe to this channel because I love old cars and I appreciate the presentation that the channel provides.
I haven’t got a pot to pee in unfortunately, which is why I’ll probably never buy. But I have made friends aware of the channel, and it’s appreciation of these wonderful old motors..
We all appreciate all support and thank you for sharing our content.
The white one and the orange one just looked the absolute nuts
The RS2000 came in some great colours!
Gotta love the orange brownish door speakers to match in with the 1970’s sea of brown inside👍😂😂😂
Thank you for sharing!
Perfectly priced to sell think white was the best colour for these would prefer a black interior but definitely on trend for thr 70s/80s original boy racers dream
Still on my bucket list
Thank you for the comments

Yes
My £30,000 wasn't enough :{
The advertised price is the best price.
30 bags buys a pile of crap or something needing finishing
Your being cheeky offering 30 large on a car that’s not
@@chiefrocka8604Yep It was worth a go, half hour later they had sold the car
Wow what a stunning car!
Thank you, we think so too!
