Good choice, what's the spec and what did you pay? I've had mine about 3 months now and love it.

Just done HPI check (www.hpicheck.com) and it says the VRM and Vin don't tie up, but its showing only 1 number plate change in its life. The previous owners HPI check (with another company) shows 2 number plate changes. I'm going to call them tomorrow as everything all ties up with the check except this, and i'm sure its just a error in the data base showing it shpuld be on one of the other plates. I won't be parting with my car or any cash until its cleared up, but i'm sure it is fine

Same colour as mine but I have black and grey leather. What miles are on it? Here's a pic to wet your appetite, you may have seen it before.

I hope it isn't a Euro imported UK spec car. Not good news for re-sale.

Austen,

Enjoy it at Bedford. Mine averaged 6mpg at the 'Ring and 8mpg at Donington (in the wet). There had better be a Shell station near teh Autodrome for that lunchtime fill up!!

Enjoy, it's a great car
