Now that's a want. Wonder why it's not on Collecting Cars or other trendy auction site?

That’s some depreciation for that kind of car. Reckon an auction with a lower reserve wouldn’t be too kind as they just don’t seem that popular?
How about not having a sig at all?

Notice the key bolted/glued to the DSG unit as well.

Quoting Brannen from the youchoob vids thread, but I've been poring over the MST website over the last couple of days. Hadn't previously appreciated that they were manufacturing new shells for these cars. Fabulous. And comparatively cheap. :?

I'll have a mk2 Fast Road & Track please
Arches
Manuel H-pattern box
2.5 Millington powerplant for 330+ horses
15" minilites (sorry purists)

Obvs this is a mk1, but the colour scheme (minus tints) will do nicely.

I tried to watch this but the presenter seemed to be doing an impression of Robert Peston so I had to switch it off after five minutes...

As a tenuous connection to WR, my friend's BiL's dad is/was friend's with WR, and he used to give them "driving lessons" at speed.
