Rapierdave Posted April 21, 2015 Author Share Posted April 21, 2015 well spotted I wonder if the new owner in Plymouth just wants a quick turn around to make a few quid or if he has found out the car aint as good as what he thought ?

Jack Posted April 30, 2015 Share Posted April 30, 2015 This looks like a very nice Manta, I remember this first coming up for sale and it was at the time when I couldn't afford a Manta and desperately wanted one. It went for £1500 the first time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plumster Posted May 1, 2015 Share Posted May 1, 2015 I reckon that is a pile of work waiting to happen, those bubbles under the paint mean some real, expensive work, unless you want a quick blow over, which it looks like it has had. What is going on with the inner wing? looks like it's been painted with a bog brush to cover the rust. I have just spent what to me is a small fortune to have one or two minor blemishes sorted out properly, you simply cannot rub surface rust off & slap paint on, no matter how many coats.
