How can they get away with putting that on an 05 plate?

It's called Manuel too, apparently. Maybe it's from Barthelona.

Strange how the lights and body style is pre 04 and the interior is post 04, I'm sure they never went together even on a JDM

well its a an accurate description, dvla as we know are are there to rape the pennies from us - i have no doubt its on the right plate / ved tax band - what worries me is how the hood doesnt retract properly and there will be a hole the size of the usa in the dash where the jdm satnav was... I dont know anyone thats got one working

Also interesting that the location is listed as Rochdale & yet the phone no is a Warrington STD & the 822 sub code area is a right shat hole. Steer clear.

I also recognise where the pics were taken but i'm buggered if i can remember it.
