Looks like it failed to make the start of Deathrace 2000!
Could be worth the money to a scooby fan tho'.
Tell them about the bent treacle edges!

It was in Bargains Elsewhere as well.
I'll say the same here, it wants painting matt black
then crushing
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Nothing that 2 gallons of petrol and a box of matches wouldn't fix.

Just be aware that it doesn't seem to have a V5 therefore will need an SVA. Might not be an easy job to get through, most (all?) old kits
had to have plenty of changes when it was first introduced. Equally I'm sure most people here would have their eyes open and do a good job.
Ho Ho, he's just noticed it's rare (as in 5 made). I hope he doesn't think it will increase the price much, it's not the most
beautiful shape in the world
On 26 inch wheels my 6 year old would think it's the coolest full size hotwheels car in the world

Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level, then beat you with experience.

Despite what it say's it's called, I sure that was called a Reflex, or summat similar. I remember them though.
That particular example is a classic case of an owner who got it to rolling stage, realised all of the boring/expensive/time-consuming stuff was ahead
and got fed up! I saw a Countach kit at one of the few, short-lived, East Of England Showground kit car shows in Peterborough which was at
approximately the same stage. Black paint that looked like it had been applied with a broom, god-awful carpeted interior, an absolute travesty!

OK, who bought it then?
What I don't get is that somebody has at some point designed that and thought it looked good enough to make real?! A true case of beauty being
in the eye of the beholder...

This car is an ebay floater, it keeps bobbing up every couple of months or so - not without good reason
If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation
