Love that interior but not sure the colour suits that model though.

Some colours suit different models, deans TZD does look lovely but not sure in that one, but thats just my opinion.

Anyone know if there is a difference? Have to admit Dean's looks a bit different to me.
Would it be worth converting to diesel, just thinking Ian may have some use for it if it was?

I'd be interested in it if its cheap.

Best thing for me to do is to get Leechy to bid on it. I'd get it for £25 then :D

Correct me if i'm wrong but anything with even the slightest sniff of road tax goes for decent money on ebay?

Although I'm not a polisher per se,Mine gets a twice yearly blathering in colour magic(2 parts black to 1 part red) which may have changed the shade slightly

Mine looks different depending on the light.On a bright day it takes on a hue which looks like blackcurrant fruit pastilles.On a dark day,it looks almost black.I suspect that the above car is the same colour as mine,but just needs a good polish to give it that"burgundy beauty " look :wink: 8) 8) 8) 8) 8)

Usually does Ian (probably to unsinsured chavs and morons) but it's not always the case. Worth taking a look at it probably and having a chat with the owner.

I think the dark colour suits the TZD more sporty look with the spoiler, one piece bumpers and alloys as per deans car, but again thats just my opinion.

I shant be bidding for it Ian sorry as i have too many cars.

I'm inclined to agree.
Deans car looks stunning, moistening infact.

Without the baby walker, the coded bumpers, splitter and black interior that just looks a bit wrong..

And it has green tint rear lights! When it should have smoked lights.... :roll:
That really ruins the back end for me..
Smokes lots, because enough's enough already!

Far too many BX's, a bus, an ambulance a few trucks, not enough time and never enough cash...

I don't think it looks that bad. Just a bit of TLc and plenty of elbow grease and it'd come up fine. It's very eighties though - burgundy and grey - a bit 'plastic shoes and white socks', but I've seen worse.
