Lol. There are Lots of people with stock 7 and 9 series that are mega neat as well that win every year. It's why I like modified class.

irishbastard

Yea, fair enough, though it doesn't stop me from trying to win, let's hope the judges like metallic black looking cars, my car is very neat, which car are you taking @Vee_Que

Vee_Que

If I'm quick I could get my black 760 done which will be neater. But still modified a lot. So in realityit will be the Wagon again if I can make it

Oh yes the POM bought the 740 Turbo in white, it clean, but needs rhs guard replacing got a dent lhs rear quarter has a scratch down it, broken inside drivers pocket, and left hand mirror is cracked, head lining saggy, needs a windscreen, overall not to bad.
This car was in the damaged auctions in January at manheim fowles, it went for $800 approx. damaged, I paid $1750 and he delivered it to my house.
