1st steps with any turbo car is to get a engine health check done and a good service and just keep checking your fluids every week

Take the stripes off it if there still on it. Ruined the look of a good car imo

Contact bucks scoobys club mate, there be able to point you in the direction of a local decent garage. Unless you don't mind traveling, in which case Scoobyworld in Loughborough is good and I believe there is a place in Northampton but you'd have to research it.

cant go wrong with a silver bugeye lol the plate on the wheeler dealer car is almost the same as mine as well. The only question i would be asking the current owner is how since they did the show its covered so few if any miles. sure it was on 80000 back then and that must be coming up to 2 years ago now but i may be wrong be worth looking up the show on you tube. other then that looked a sound car on the show, but i agree about losing the stripes

Yeah your right it had just 80,000 now it is nearly 81 I bought it off the program film company hardly been used since thats one reason why I want a decent service before I get going with it, I will try the Bucks club.
