New FC owner =D

Got her on Sunday, guy was in debt and leaving so I got it for an incredible deal. Garage kept its whole life, never driven in winter in the 3 owners it was through; 280xxxkms on the body and no rust, 15xxxkms on the engine. The previous owner got into a slow rear end accident and got no damage except curling the hood up a bit, so I replaced that with a black one, but I noticed now that it has blue metallic flake =/ Paint was horrible and oxidized as you'll see from the pics, but I detailed it on Monday and all is better now!

looks pretty clean. 3 owners 280k? Never driven in winter...I doubt it.

Nice car either way though.
