Aye, in super rare green!

Also comes with a diff pre-welded and pikey exhaust. Right up my street this one :D

I think the torque tube has exploded on it but should be an easy repair. Just a case of taking bits off, see if they spin, replace with new bits.

Yep, the one that sold for £360 not long back. It's not in my possession yet so you'll all have to wait for pics. Unless I can find some lying around I guess...

In my mind, I was bored of 300s. So I got the 740 as it was a car off my "cars to own" list, super practical, everything I need etc etc. Then I realised seriously how much of an all-rounder the 300 series is, 740s are too heavy despite the power, too big to park, get tailgated. Then I spoke with butterz and a deal was made :wink:
