to be fair at least that megane looks like the work has been done to a fairly decent standard

a few years ago i was breaking a gtt and ended up selling quite a few bits to this chap saying his gtt was showroom condition, when i saw the car it looked like a bunch of school girls had painted it

the trophy in all fairness was in pretty good condition, but i knew a few years down the line it wouldnt be worth much due to its milage and service history, anyway got the car that i wanted now so its all good :)
