PFL shell donor

Looks clean.  Naturally it's of no use whatsoever with that engine and interior but if you needed to reshell an MV6 or something...

If that was an estate I'd be all over it. My boy racer days are over and those seats are really comfy.

I test drove a 2.0 diesel that looked as clean as that and drove really well to match. But the price was about 10x more.

That indeed looks great! Great opportunity for somebody looking to build a keeper. :y

That's a cracking looking motor for pennies.

According to the MOT history it has some rusty areas underneath on the chassis rails etc. so who knows how far it's gone..

It's a lovely shade of brown, too, which seems right up your street..  :P

Looks like a perfect candidate for a tuned LET swap to me: fit the engine, clean the car and you have a nice sleeper.

It won't. Beige isn't anybody's favourite colour... they just lose the power to fight it when they get old.  ;)

True. But you'd still need to get rid of the beige-ness inside.  LETs hope whoever bought it does something good with it  :D
