        Totally irrelevant but I can't help but wonder whether the discrepancy between the front and rear registration plate is intentional...

          Nice colour combination IMO, Laguna Seca with black/grey interior.

          Just had a look a look at the bids on ebay. They are not even getting close to its value.

            Not sure how you would value this?

              Difficult as it has been an engineless shell for a while.

              Great trackday toy IMO.

                Yes, and it's now not a S50, or a S54.

                  Looks "clean" without the number plate holder and bumper light

                    Surely not MOT-able though?

                        How I have mine now since running the 3/4 plate (well still have the bumper light!)

                          Tech I ally I don't believe the plate is legal, but we can let that go. The lack of a light is certainly illegal!!

                            Yea, I suppose you could DIY some hidden LEDs in the boot handle (I did think of doing this [smoothed bumper] when I was getting my car painted but left the bumper light in as the bodyshop said they could do that and the front side markers but couldn't guarantee it not cracking later down the line).

                            The plate just looks small because you're far away

                            Surprised with the smoothed bumper they have fitted the rear wiper, the rear end on that car would look really tidy with the wiper deleted.

                              According to Road Traffic Regulations (see below it you can understand them!!! ) it is a requirement and so would fail an MOT if not fitted. I think the bit in red is the relevant bit?

                              (a) works trucks,
                              (b) road rollers,

                              (a) the vehicle, or
                              (b) where the vehicle is towing a trailer, the trailer or,
                              (c) where the vehicle is towing more than one trailer, the rear most trailer, must be lit in accordance with this regulation.
                              (3) Where a vehicle (or, in a case where the plate is required to be fixed on a trailer, that trailer) has been constructed so as to satisfy the requirements of the relevant type-approval directive, whether or not it is required by law to satisfy them, that plate may be lit by a lamp which complies with those requirements but if it is not so lit it must be lit in the manner required by paragraph(5).
                              (4) Except as provided in paragraph (3) that plate must be lit in the manner required by paragraph (5).
