I really hope it is as good as it appears. I would of preferred to of been able to put it on a ramp and give it a proper check over as there is a bit of rust on the rear suspension arms. Hopefully nothing too bad and the brakes are a bit of a worry as they can get mega expensive. At least the discs look ok although the pads are getting down a bit (they were advised a few years ago) It is a bit of a risk at 5 grand but that doesn't get you much in the RR world now.

Interested to see how this develops. That does look like a lot of car for the money.

Cant have cars lower down unless they are autos hence my fancying of mpvs and suchlike. Plenty of mobility scooter space,wide doors etc. Picassos have always been good at being a car. Nothing more nothing less.
