Rare, early C plate (April 1986) 745, potentially nice (but not)...read the ad, you get to,"no rust aside from a bit on the front wing", then look at the front wing ! Seller spent a"lot of money getting it perfect".

I wonder what it took to make that dent, I tore a large chunk out of a Lexus with my front wing and it's just got a little paint damage.

That part you wanted Joe, I have one if you still need it, no worries if not.

Ah bugger, thanks but I managed to find a NOS one on ebay in the end for a sensible price.

No worries, I've about half a dozen spare (and free), at least you have one now.
