SOLD! 525bhp blobeye
After many many years of owning this car, it is time to hand it over to someone else to enjoy - I just don't get the opportunity to drive it any more 
It's very difficult to value such a custom build, but let's start with me asking £15k, but I will listen to all sensible and serious offers
And now reduced to £13k
(T15 TRH was my private plate, now taken off)
Any questions about the car? Please ask!
