Putting this in Styling as figured this is the best place to put it, please move it if its not.

Basically seen a cleanish cheap e30 on ebay butthe bumpers have been removed?? has been MOT'd but cant imagine why they have done it? Is it legal?

If I bought it obviously I would put bumpers back on it
