Why shouldn't I buy this ?

[xkrGiles]

I need a reality check please. I keep looking at this car, I have an XKR that ive spent some money on tidying up, so I should keep it really. But I just like muscle type cars in all formats and this looks fabulous....

Please tell me lots of reasons why I shouldnt buy it ? other than the money !

it won't go round corners but it will be absolutely awesome

[carsarecool]

Oh deary me Giles, you must be mad!

















Get it bought!

[carsarecool]

You know it makes sense!

[LordBretSinclair]

Petrol stations in Devon are too far apart

plus of course it will always need a key to start it

[LordGrover]

That is very, very desirable. What's not to like?
When you've done the deed, can I come round to listen to it?

[Stubby Pete]

I can't provide any explanation whatsoever.
The omly thing I can't quite grasp is why it's still for sale!!

[xkrGiles]

your not helping.....

its non-original engine type or spec
its non- original colour
its the wrong year for the R/T livery
it will always need work

This is what I was looking for ?

Now I just want it more

(loving the keys comment tho )

Buy it!

Giles you need to get that then come drag racing with us on saturday

[Six Fiend]

There is no reason not to buy this

[graham22]

That looks great but ...

am I the only one thinking from the side it looks like a Dodge Charger kit car/replica based on, say, an Escort where the proportions are slightly wrong, along the lines of the MR2 based 355 replicas?



It looks awsome in all of the other pictures, just felt it shouldn't be called a Charger as the first reaction is to compare it to the Dodge one. General Bruce Lee.

>7 litre V8 =

[Xenocide]

No reason that I can think of - buy it!

The purchase of a car like that automatically enters you,(full membership) into this crowd:

I think No4, No12 or maybe No15 would best suit you Giles

[sebhaque]

It's old, probably smells, won't start in the mornings, isn't supercharged, isn't British, is a silly colour.

That said, buy it Giles!
