Wanted white 850 manual saloon for BTCC replica

[T5-Rsean]

Hi all as title says I want a 850 T5 manual saloon in white, condition unimportant, I have a T5-R for sale and would be willing to take Your car in part ex against it, good way of upgrading to an R! Only doing this due to I think it would be wrong to modify and strip out a T5-R to such an extent...

WHY?

Regards

Hi RT, I see this as the only way of doing a BTCC replica, I bought the T5-R with the intention of modifying it but after having a good look round it and looking thruough all the paper work that came with the car I decided it would be wrong to modify such a good example... sound daft? then I saw a BTCC picture and thought I would love a road going replica, stripped out and everything but theres no way I could bring myself to do that to the R hence she's gotta go then hopefully get a lower spec T5 saloon in white which would save painting etc..and I wouldn't feel guilty bout stripping it out! fingers crossed if all this comes off I'll pop up and come and see You for some goodies and advice..
