Iain - Stop it!!!!

I'm selling mine so that I can afford the new MY03 that I've ordered from you.

Please change your post to - Buy Shade's car, it's a lovely example of a quality motor!!!

Talking

Quite a good fun car.

My only experience of one was being taken for a lap round the Ring in one, having given the driver of it a brisk lap in the Skoda. Good fun and totally manic once it hit the power zone. Trouble was it was an auto (or whatever the now trendy name for it is ). Damn thing kept down shifting the whole time. Amazed by the amount of headroom in it. Not sure about the auto box but over all I liked it.

Just selling mine, which I've owned for the last 3.5 years (since it was imported).

If you want to know anything about them, drop me an email or give me a call (email me for mobile no.)

There's not much I don't know about buying them, driving/using them, common faults, best models, options, mods, etc.

Use this site and the links. My mates got the one that was in both MaxP and FastC a fews months ago with the harlequin paint job, leather, and 18" toora alloys. His is without doubt the best there is at the moment.
