so plastic mx5 with Bini lights and a porscheish arse end

Rear lights are from a K12 Micra I believe.

"services"

I reckon he's just de-stickered the business name - same as the web address on the rear.

Decent price indeed, not sure if the clear coat on the bonnet is a bit ruined?

Also those retrofit taillights are a crime to humanity. Why would anyone do this, there are plenty more elegant ways of adding rear fog lights and amber indicators without ruining the bumper.

I was going to say the say about those rear lights. They are horrible.

Furious Matt used the original lights on his Crown Vic.

With an update.

They did  a fairly decent job with the EU spec Town Cars imo. I am not sure how hard the EU only parts are to come by, but I'd try switching for these units if mber blinkers are needed.

I thought the Dutch APK would accept red turn signals.

I used to be given a lift to school in an identical talbot to that, for that reason alone i would never buy it 😁

Isnt a broken torsion bar probably the kiss of death on one of these?

These are not slow if I remember correctly. But not great around corners. 

What I'm trying to say is that it's a winner's car. 

 When I worked in't mill back in the mid 90's the finance director got a 2.0 one of these brand new.  If we needed to do "COMPUTER STUFF" at other sites they used to have to let us minions borrow their cars, which we obviously ragged the life out off.

I remember getting this and being very excited about it and being impressed by how quick it was and it was quite fancy inside (for 1997). But even at the time it felt shite around corners to me and I'd probably only driven 5 other cars in my life at that point and my daily driver was a 1984 Volvo 360GLE.   I've never really fancied one since.
