Still cool though and looks in good condition.

So were hartge the people that started the trend for black kidneys?

from the dvla report it looks like the car has not been taxed since 1994 and has never been sorn'd...

it doesn't look dusty enough!! and the tyres don't look f*cked enough.....

Lovely!!!

The orange colour is due to the camera over saturating the red, probably due to the lighting conditions.

That is lovely. I secretly like the cavvy take on the IS style lip spoiler!!!

I'd have the grill returned to black though.

as much as i prefer black grills
i think this puppy should be kept as found as the second you start modding it the car looses some of its sharm.
there's not many hartges (or are there) in as good condition with ALL the bits nasty or nice is there?

agreed - leave it as total 80's kitsch which it is...

it may be a limited edition and special but it is of its time so needs to stay as is...

Looks like a half tidy henna red chromer with a set of wheels and a 6 branch , i am trying to get excited but i can't .
As a nice sorted car on the road and with its alleged 'Hartgeness' verified it might on a good day ( with a sport trim and a hartge steering wheel !) be worth £2500, as an old turd with a few good bits i hope the owner isn't planning any expensive holidays ! :)

If it was mine I would put the red grill in bubble wrap in the loft and run around with a black one! :wink:
