Sold.

IF he got £7995 then that's a good sign... :wink:

Looks great in white with the Toyota wheels and narrow body. A classic early configuration so should be a keeper. :)

It was on the market for a while. I saw the advert a good 2 months ago on various sites, but it didn't fit what I was looking for.
Did you notice the state of the dash in the video? Must be all that sunshine in Hull that finished it off.

I was looking for the active ride Excel but this was the nearest I could get to it. Interesting tho. Its a pity it ended up on a scorpion tank system.

I've seen that before Bash - good isn't it? One car I've always fancied is the coupe version of my Mercedes S350 - the CL - it has active suspension, but everyone I've talked to about it says you need very deep pockets to keep the suspension working after the first 50k miles. Shame.
