but a dealership might! As a promotional car to tempt younger drivers.I would say the finish is of a high "Factory" standard.

To the extent of fitting 5 stud hubs? VXR brakes? VXR Suspension?

Fait enough the bumpers, skirts, spoiler and lights but the rest I can't see any dealer doing

Just call him ha.

He hasn't a clue who put the kit on

Says the exhaust is sticking out as the VXR does not have a spare wheel. They went around it so they could keepo the wheel in there.

I dread to think where those parts have come from
It would have cost thousands to buy them all brand new.
Something definetly seems fishy!
Could be a stolen VXR with engine and plate swap, or stolen VXR stripped and put all the bits on a 1.2 then sold on totally innocently
