nice care phil.. do you have plan's with the car?

sidecarphil 11-10-2008 20:57

keep it ?? , run it ?? , and maybe sell it to buy a better one ??

the body is a little scabby but i really like it and don't wanna sell it because it's supposed to be rare :confused: cos it is an edition one with recaro's but a re-spray is expensive ???

hmmm
