Well firstly brought the car was in pretty good condion only problem was the arch trim on passenger side where damaged and had aftermarket Alloys painted green so kind of smacked you in the face and abit too much green for my liking so picked up some ceasaros for not a bad price
And also a backbox that big you could sit on the tail pipe no thanks
