A bit pricey, no cruise/traction control? Is that right for SE?
I shall watch this one.

Wouldn't take much to get rid of the horrible wheels, put back the proper exhausts as they still have them and remove the stupid side stickers.

Engine mods are OK. Nice car really but something about it in silver just makes it look bland.

i like the wheels i think its the other tacky bits that make it look odd...like said before all can be put back or made more tastefull...but that lpg filler looks nasty and on the wrong side of the car imo.

Errrmm, the wheels are standard Apex wheels for the facelift V8 and very sought after...... and 'rare' natch...

A nice LPG'd car by all accounts...very well looked after...it just needs toning down a tad imho.

Yes but they look terrible on this car and could be sold to get a proper set. Or refurbed to silver.

Remove the stickers & the Lexus lights & I'd quite like it.

Wonder if those 'vents' in the wings are stick on too or cut out.

The 'horrible wheels' are actually proper MG Apex V8 wheels, although usually found fitted to the Mark Two cars.
