This was discussed elsewhere on here recently. That is the last time this was on ebay and didn't sell. The seller thinks it's agood idea to stick these V8 badges over a perfectly saleable 1.8.
Barry at his worst I'm afraid :) It won't sell this time either. he needs to wake up and remove anything that is not original and offer it for what it really is. A very nice and competent piece of kit.

I was gonna say, but Zebedeedooday beat me to it, that this has already been on eBay before AND discussed here.

You'd have thought the seller would have known better this time around... :rolleyes:

Perhaps someone should point them towards this club website. Maybe they'd get a better sale after reading everones opinions of the car and how it would be better without the silly V8 badges.... :rolleyes: :pepsi:

"PLEASE COULD YOU TELL WHAT THE DIFFERANCE IS BETWEEN THIS CAR AND THE V8?"

Errr, where do i begin... 4 cylinders, 100 PS, rear wheel drive, genuine credibility - do i need to go on?

Almost as bad as those chav'ed up 1.8 litre 3 series beemers with the M3 logos everywhere... oh dear, oh dear, oh dear...

What i find most annoying is that a 1.8T R75 with a premium front is a really nice car, why would anyone want to badge it as a V8? Baffling.
