Not my bag, but there’s a lot of work gone into that, to fit a Scirocco front end and Merc rear lights.

I spy a V6 bumper. Very nice.

I’ve seen this around, I’ve definitely let him out of a junction before, just to get a chance to admire it.

Interesting that it’s got an early front grille, on an 03 plate.

I wanted an iPAQ so much back in the day.

Does the press come with it?

I’ve only seen a couple of the hybrids, seems most people opt for the 1 litre.

Most sci-fi and fantasy for me. Aside from the lord of the rings trilogy and one Harry Potter film.

I’ve a feeling they might be fake exhaust tips.

Bargain price.

It’s incredible how good a twenty year old car can be these days.
