Looks nice, interstellar mileage though. And why the new ignition lock? Stolen-recovered? HPI it first, I reckon.
If it's a recent paint job, what's its factory colour scheme, what does the log book say? Is it really a "Rothmans Limited edition"? Service history for how many of its 90k miles?

Questions questions

Was it the 87 or the 88 model of the VFR that's a right bugger to get parts for. I was trying the get head gasget set for one a few months ago for a mate and you can't get them any more other then for huge prices direct from Japan. So watch out, as alot of the parts a not made any more.

Dont touch it with a barge pole!!!!!!!!

Too many miles, possible dodgy history due to new paint & requirement for ignition barrel.

You could get something far more user friendly, with lower miles for the same sort of money.

Run away Mrs 24/7 and erase this pile of turd from your mind
