I quite like them, and that one looks like a cracker

Wouldn't swap the scoob for one myself, but then if you're selling it anyway and fancy a change, why not?

One thing that would put me off is sitting in the thing, i think the classic interior is poor (sorry!), let alone a 1980s French dash

Steve, agree couldn't live with the dash, I had a gordini turbo which was quite cool all those years ago, but shocking interior and pant handling .
Bet it would get round the ring as quick as your scoob though

Always liked the 5GTT's This type of ad annoys me though! He put the for sale post up with a price (that he obviously was happy with) and a few people said that they were selling for more and his was a very good price! so he upped the price

He was obviously happy to sell at a much lower price point! so why change? Yes, obviously to try and get a better price but it could be the difference between a sale or not!!!

on first look I really liked it.. the more I look and think it should have a standard bumper and no orange under the hood.. if it looked like that outside. . was as powerful or nearly on a normal size intercooler and was black under the bonnet (and actually had an air filter) I think it would be a good buy.
