Anybody remember the Festival of wheels show they held in the SECC? Must have been about 1987.
It was a show full of customs and classics, just my cup of tea and I remember me and a mate getting a bollocking for sitting on the RAC motorbikes when the man had gone for his lunch.

Here's how to tell the difference

Buying = old bangers
Selling= Classics

The whole car is out of proportion- the wheels, as you point out, look too small and the car is too narrow-looking, underneath it'll probably be an old Sierra or something like that
