hi mate...sure i`ve seen that for sale before, obviously been resprayed as i`m sure you know that the crossfire was never availiable in white in uk and you can see the black doorshuts, it has a long mot and it says service history so as long as the respray was done to a good standard its worth a look, its got a buy it now of Ł4100, have a look and if you like it go in at Ł3500 and go from there...good luck...chris

Might even be a wrap and not a respray ??? as the shuts have not been done I would think not a very good job been done (imo) also got silly aftermarket reversing sensors, so electrics have been played around with.

might be worth a look, look hard!!!!!

Mo, why do you say the electrics would have been played around with? There wasn't a Chrysler built that had parking sensors as standard therefore there all aftermarket

my point exactly and IMO not nessesary on such a small car and they don't look very nice! especially on that white one. Just one of my pet hates I have them standard fit on my Land Rover, hate them!!! but at least there is an OFF switch

My philosophy is that if you see a car and want it and you know that it has not been damaged, and the mechanics and the body are really good for its year then go for it.
If it is damaged, dented etc do not buy it because it is cheap unless you can bring it up to the standard you want for less than the difference between the price you will pay for it and the price you would pay for the car of your choice.

If you buy a cheap car now you may forever regret it.
Sometimes it's just better to wait until the right car comes along and it will, maybe right after you purchased the cheap one.

Yer I know what you mean, my day car has a rear camera and I do prefer that, but the sensors on the Roadster are almost a must because the poor rear visibility
