Re: B3 WGN on eBay!
think the current owner had it with the car as hes a forum member, if my memory serves me right i think he paid about £700 for car with reg, so reg is not going to be stupid price. id message him and ask, he had the bonnet and nose off me to repair some minor damage, seemed a nice enough chap.
