So, the recent KGF Celebration is now in a video by one of those annoying youtubers.
The presenter gets on your nerves almost instantly, but it does show the car in a non-showroom lighting situation.
Those rear lights look they've seen better days, obviously better than many, but for a getting on for £5k price tag?
(heard he didn't pay £5k for it, but how much less I've no idea)
Also, claims to be all original paint.
Guess he didn't test the front bumper then lol

"If you can't fix it with a hammer, it's an electrical fault!"
Hammers can't fix a 480!!!

Re: KGF Celebration
I have mixed thoughts on that one myself - I understand why the buyer wanted it but equally I'd love to know what he actually paid for it!
If you search you'll find a thread where we were "analysing" that particular car, and the missing black stripe was something I picked up on with Jeff: as you say, something's been done to that front bumper...
If you're lining up to be a seller I guess seeing pressure on values is a good thing - it's what we've all been saying needs to happen. But it's such a mish-mash at the moment - quality cars for not a lot of money, rubbish being offered at premium prices
