The previous owner purchased the car in December 2006. He is a professional mechanic and reported that he over serviced the vehicle himself during his ownership.

Not so good points


Small marks in paint.


Rear bumper nearside has two rub marks.


Previous stereo fitment removed some of the surround – as a result there is a small gap below the new stereo.


Some drivers seat bolster wear and a hole in the side of the bolster.


Three gauge pod is not a great fit - and now two of the Prosport gauges have failed so these are being replaced.

Haha, Photoshop

Hair drier, or park the car in the sun on a hot day, warm them up, use your nails to peal them back, then use something like Autoglym tar and glue remover to get rid of the residue.

Then I'd wash the car and polish as, if they've been on there for a long time the paint under the stickers wont have faded the like rest of the car. Probably take you half a day with no messing about.

Hi, I am near Stratford on Avon. I have not removed any of the stickers yet - was deliberating on that yesterday! I need to do a poll and see what the general consensus is!
