This is advertised on Pistonheads

Has anyone seen this car or checked it over. A friend has asked as he wants to buy it.

 

Doesn't look right to me. Mex with RS stripes on.

 

Any ideas?

 

Cheers

so, its an original genuine Mexico apart from the Pinto, Type9, interior, wheels, cage, welded up roof, etc.

 

Lol. It's not really original is it!

I've seen this in the flesh and wasn't impressed.

 

I think if you started a full restro to get it looking nice you'd be spending a lot of money and time on it.

 

In my opinion there's nicer cars around for less money, Avo shells or not.

imho to much for a rs2000 rep even tho its a t49

I called the gut up at xmas as was in yorkshire for xmas and was going to buy it, it was advertised as not the usual rusty rubbish etc but the wings are bubbling and the vinyl roof is covering the fact that it had a sunroof! I offered him 5 grand for it and he wouldnt budge.

If it sounds to good to be true it probbebly is

I offered the previous owner £5k when it was down here, he just laughed at me then started raving about how much the engine was etc etc.

 

I told him he could keep the engine and the stripes as i would want a X/flow in it as it was a Mexico and not an Rs2000 !!!!!

 

He just put the car away and said someone would buy it ........................ as he had !!!!

 

I think he P/x against another race car with a dealer.
