Anyone seen the ED40 on eBay being sold as auction?

Is it just me, but the rear NS door and quarter panel look a totally different colour?

it's just the light. You couldn't get away with a job that bad!

There is an obvious difference between the two doors, no light or shadow carry over between them from the front and back side pictures where the doors meet.

It would be a bad paint job for sure if it is.

Silver used to have a reputation for being notoriously difficult to get good colour match on. Judging by the pictures of that car it seems that might still be the case, although a decent painter would have blended the new paint into the adjacent panels to try and disguise any shade differences.

I don't think that's just the light playing tricks, its a bad paint job.

Someones painted that edge to edge, should've been blended out down the side.

Also, in the above bonnet pic something doesn't look right where the N/S headlamp meets the wing??

Anyone asked for a video ? The lighting under the trees doesn’t help with the shadows and reflections .

Photo 2- if you enlarge the image, the top left of passenger side rear door is the same silver as the rest of the car, the rest of the door is that grey colour.
I think this is a negative reality inversion.

Looks like passenger door and front wing are different shades to the rest, that's looking at the original set of pics.

Come on, someone on here must have a sense of humour? Or an interest in cult 80s comedy??
I can wait...
