Seen one with similar paint job for £1k+ before. Photos don't make it look as bad as it is I don't think. Rust and scrapes look pretty much everywhere.
For that money though, can't really complain!

I've just had to call an ambulance, I've just done several ribs.

Oh God...so wrong on so many levels...whoever built this THING should be jailed.

fuck it makes me wince just thinking about how much this is gonna go for..

NOS De Rosa Titanio with complete NOS 1st generation anodized C Record groupset

i'm gonna say $13,000

To bad it's not a first gen. C-rec. (only rear der. is) and not a "complete" century group.
Lovely bike though..

...Surely, if it was your own bike, you would mention the bike's dimensions and try to portrait it in a good light...

Definitely get those grammar police in!

All caps italics makes for such easy reading

Yes it looks really nice, but it would look so much better if those wheels were taken apart and re-laced onto GEL 330s, GP4s or whatever, with a gumwalled vittoria or veloflex.

I don't really understand why anyone would keep a bike like that NOS. I would personally keep it in my Italian villa* for riding to the coffee shop in the next village and other sunny day slow rides. I'd also have a Colnago Arabesque* as a beater bike.

• In my dreams
  

I would chuck some risers on it and wheelie it to the shops doing bar spins all the way*

*in my dreams (I can't bar spin)

Why collect your own fan/stalker newspaper clippings when you can buy someone elses on ebay:
