no he came second, was won by peppermint mk2. mike brewer and the new tv editor did tell us that they both thought it was the best there but wasnt awarded the prize because it was "too good" and too well known, and won other stuff before.

Bodywork is not shabby at all, its pristine all the way around. There is nothing you can fault it on.

it hasent had that much i know brett and dave (who built the car) really well as dave my phone a friend when i am stuck on somthing 
Max got the price 25k as Brett said that how much he had spend on the since first owning it..........
Buying the car
3 sets of wheels
3 paint jobs
942 bulbs
£2.93 brake fluid
etc ect
to build the car from nothing to that the way it is Dave(who built it for brett) recons 10k
just Max taking things out of context
your also luck to see it out
its the first time its been out in months and months, last time i heard he was out in it was at PVS last year, its always dry stored.
seeing it up the strip even i havent seen the thing move in all the time i have know them

i know wot u mean about out of context stuff from max, but ive known dave/brett for a long time, ever since brett first bought his current nova which started life as a 1.4SR
i reckon its more than 10k as its changed appearences soooo many times. looks the best now though
