Default 855 Donor Car Required (Pearl Red)

Hi there,

The winter was not kind to my T5, with the clear coat half lifted off the bonnet and the tin worm having a go at the tailgate & n/s wing.
I'm not particularly handy with a spray can so it seems to me the easiest way to get it in a oner is to pick up a Pearl red donor car and do a straight swap. I also need various bits of trim.
Mine is pretty sound mechanically (apart from shocks and springs which arrived today)
The market value of our cars is so ridiculously low, that a whole car is worth considerably less than the sum of it's parts.

Anybody got something or know of something suitable?

I'm in South Lanarkshire.

Thanks,
Dave

Yep, that's the one.

This one was on e-bay a couple of weeks ago but was pulled.
