		Well it's up to you man it's tested till jan and tax end of month. I'm keeping a bit off it like the '6 brakes and taking the two bar and wind deflectors off but otherwise is a stage 1 hdi with cat back straight through on gti struts and springs otherwise it's a boring lx model with a wonky bonnet and cracked drivers skirt :p the beam is straight as hell though!

		'Small' damage?  I don't think that'll T cut out tbh!     And the alloys are scruffy if that rear one is anything to go by (how does that happen with the same owner from new!?    ).
 
But at least it's reasobnable mileage and Y reg...and in the best colour lol!

		Ahh, that's not so bad then, it's always who you know lol! 
And that's odd, I must've had about 6 or 7 sets of clones now, all original and none have been that bad.  Pretty sure its cos people don't wash them, so a bit of road salt or brake dust ruins them after a while.....but with a car you've owned from new would think they'd have more pride in it/wash it more lol.
 
I do like Astor though!  Still yet to own one.

I've never had any peeling on any of my pug alloys. I've seen a few about but hey put the time in to keep good condition and it'll show through time I guess.
 
Still so lucky I got it big thanks to Zakk for finding it last minute after viewing the worlds worst diablo [FACE WITH TEARS OF JOY]

		The cyclones on my estate were peeled like that, I think Peugeot changed the paint they used on 2001 onwards wheels as the only ones I see like this came off late ph3 cars. Probably a typical cost cutting thing  
 
I do seem to be good at finding these cars don't I lmao
