Was told about this tonight. GF's friend used to own it, he sold it to a bloke who wanted to take it to Germany i think.
This is what happened to it......

State of the dash makes you wonder what the rest of the conversion will be like.
On the plus side, its 1 of the fastest cars ive ever been in.

That gear stick looks completely out of reach!?
It's not like it's a car that's going to be driven every day, so surely keeping it RHD would have made more sense!? Silly Germans...

I don't even think they would get £14k if it was still RHD.
It did have a brand new engine put in it after the crank shattered into several pieces when Ballsy had it.
It also has/had £ks worth of GAZ coilovers fitted, not sure if they or the de-cats will still be on it.

I wouldn't feel safe driving that, and it's definitely not worth that!
My Dad used to have a Cerb, I think he sold it for about £12k, but it was an absolute minter, only done 32k.

I wonder if I could swap my Corsa for it. It has a knackered head gasket but at least it's drivable unlike that POS there, look at the handbrake too, doesn't even look attached properly, and how in hell do you change gear? I wouldn't even be able to reach that gearstick, lol. Seriously that is one poor conversion.

Which wasn't the link Gary quoted, he quoted info from the 2nd link. Not that it matters anymore.
