That was RX7 powered years ago, then the guy took the motor out & tried flogging it 4/5 years back, it was in Custom Car & Street Machine for months, i think they wanted £450 - minus the lump!

Iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinteresting!!!!
The buyer, with 0 feedback purports to be from gloucestershire, and going by the alias has a penchant for Fiat 130's.
A retro-rider, from gloucestershire, serial owner of Skoda's & fiat 130's is no longer registered with eBay under their own name..
WOULD THE REAL RICH NARES PLEASE STAND UP!!??

I actually think the wideboy exhaust adds to the effect - an old Skoda with a fat tailpipe looks even more laughable (to non-retro-liking people, that is) than a normal Skoda.
The more amusement you can cause when standing still, the bigger the shock will be when you leave 'em for dust!

Sort of reverse pyschology effect, make it look like you haev a slow car you think is fast. I did something similar with my XR4x4 by sticking a TurboSystems sticker on the back.

As said above, that's been around for years and years. I remember parking near it in Annabelle... so that would have been 98-99?
The framework is ugly, hanging way below the bodywork, but fair play for stuffing such a silly engine into it. Gotta be worth asking price for the engine alone, and of course the price of estelles is going up now too...
