will do i will post some pics up later on thanks and i was looking for £3000 as it is i know tis might seem dear but its well worth more in my eyes just because of the mint condition and all the new parts over the past year as i do mean new and nearly everything has been done to it i just cant afford to spend any more money on it as i lost my job so i am stuck as if i had money coming in i would do the work to it.

Would seem a shame to break it, but....... I'd like to dibsy the front bumper, would be interested in that and maybe the wheels if you do go down that route.

Hopefully someone with the time and money will rescue it and do the ness to bring it back to full life again . Out of curiosity what colour is it?
