I don't recognize it, but a shocker of an advert for a car that appears to have had a fair chunk of money spent on it, as I read that it's a R45 converted to look like a zs ?.

Seen this for sale countless amounts of time! Was passed around the West Midlands for ages swapping owners around every 3-4 I kept seeing it back up for sale.
Probably a rough one? Also I believe it was a previous cat c

I think I'll stay clear of this one then.

With anything like this, a decent, detailed advert is a must.
A link to a thread showing the build would really influence me.

The insurance must be fairly steep being a Rover 45 > ZS 180 rep > T-Series conversion.

Yeh, seen it for sale quite a few times too. Cat C rings a bell but obviously a HPI check will confirm if its a deal breaker.

A car like this should be inspected before buying regardless of history.

And a car of this age and value could be a cat C for a cracked bumper, don't rejected before seeing it.

That said it might be a pair of Marks and Spenser's finest Y fronts.

yeah been around a while, must have had a few owners by now, and i do remember cat c on one of the ebay ads.

I think one side is different shades of red when i looked at it once but for that money it is what it is.
