Test drove it two weeks ago, believe it has been sold since (could be mistaken though).

They were in the process of swapping the plate over.

Agreed, it looks to be one tasty Brab. Bet they'll take £4k for it as well. Bargain if they do  ;)

yup - defo the one..... has the "powered by brabus" little badges on the doors :)

if the plate is included then even better!!

wonder why they have "photo shopped" the wall behind??  note the missing aerial!!

anyway, last time i saw this car, the guy was so proud of it he had spent oodles of time polishing it and had replaced a wheel even if it had a slight curbing on it.

He was THE second owner so i would assume its VERY mint

ask about the cam belt though baggy!!

Looks well looked after, but the rear wiper isn't working.

Wiper could be just stopped in that position when ignition off?

Of course it could, but it's more likely a seized motor as this is a very common issue.

Call him, inquire about interim oil changes, cambelt and rear wiper, see if you can drive down the price a bit.

The car was full of filler and had a cracked turbo reason for sale.
Also the car was well know to the police in the Sheffield area ,this is the reason why it went to the Doncaster area so the police would think its gone,
The car would park up in strange area's and sit there for hours male and male (wink wink) if you know what i mean,
The gays have moved now from Sheffield and i think they have moved to Doncaster.
This is where the car was spotted last  on a doggin web site.
If you now own this car and plate get the turbo fixed and give it a deep wash valet  :P
