I know it has slight bodywork needed.

I am a big fan of the wide arch kits, but does anyone know the car or if it is running mechanically sound ?

Looks like the paint and bodykit has been done to hide a past!
from the pics it looks like the front slam panel is bent and the dent in the rear quarter doesnt happen easily.
is it hpi clear?

It looks well and truly abused. Bent slam panel, used to be white, fog covers on then off and may go round corners without turning the wheel.

It's been crunched at some point and the fact they didn't do the front right when they repaired it, might mean that the rest hasn't been done right, I would still be tempted if the price was right,
