Default Car in your SN Area.

I am new to SN and am looking to get my first scooby soon. I have seen this one advertised in the West Midlands, looks good, but I dont know if this is good value or to be avoided? Any advice would be great or if anybody knows of the actual car some feedback would be appreciated.

Looks really good.

What I don't get is that it's been mapped yet never been on a Dyno, is that just road mapping?

Thanks for that. Couple of items that could have been done a bit better, brakes, gearbox, turbo and set up. Maybe ran out of wedge?

On paper it looks a good buy. To buy an engine spec alone like that would be near enough the asking price. Dubious about how long a 5 speed would last at the quoted figures. Chuck a six speed on it and it would be a beast

I can't tell, but what brake set up has it?
If still standard that would be your first £££ I'd change.. if it's running 500bhp
