Look at the shape of the car at 2:04 - simply beautiful. The S3 is the most desirable and beautiful Esprit -IMO. I could care less if it's not super fast. One day, I hope to get one in a restored condition. There is nothing like it.
As an Esprit owner, seeing the car flogged on the "test drive" made my heart stop! The Citroen transmission is not necessarily fragile, but it is certainly not designed for that style of driving.
And aside from the worn interior, exhaust hole, and a bit of blue smoke, the car looked in top shape - I'm curious what he meant by "so many jobs" to do???
Yeah I heard they had to opt for crappy transmissions because of the lack of space. Seems to be the achilles heel of the Esprit and about the only thing that lets it down.

I have a deep suspicion that that bloke isn't the real 'seller', and the car has been bought at auction, along with all the cars in this show

Surely having bits common to cars that are more mundane is a good thing as parts are cheap?
