Definitely a taste(less) thing, good artwork but limited market for it is my guess.

Strange it's not got current MOT, may be it's failed on the paintjob.

I was not expecting that at all.

No wonder it only have 17k on the clock...... You would not want to be seen driving. Or at least I would not

Suit a chopper or a truck but just don't think a subaru or evo can pull that sort of paint job off

Someones put a lot of time and effort into it tho so hats off for that

It's not even drawn very well. It definitely stands out though.

Exactly !!!!! to be honest you could " almost " accept if it was just done to the bonnet but the whole car ?? - nope I think he will live to regett having that done to such a fine car.

would be offering him 1k + less to cover the cost off a quality wrap, even then come resale you have the problem all over again and explaining why such a low mileage car has a little hidden extra underneath !!

pretty sure this was a company demo, not sure what for?

but surely if it goes for the right price you could get it repainted, say white, or back to stock and still save some money? also youll have a fresh paint job, and an imaculate low mileage car.

Yes but the prat wants £8500 for it. It's worth more like £5500 in my opinion. Would need the best part of £2000 spending on the paint straight away.
