I've a feeling they might be tricky to replace, being the prodrive items. Other than that it just needs a good clean inside - outside is virtually spotless, it drives *really* nicely too :D

The cable for the amp is off the battery now and tucked away in the engine bay - no fear of live wires!

cool, glad your happy with it mate

So it should have been mapped, or if not then checked to see if it does need it.

Low mileage cars are hard to come by but suggest you tread carefully and ask all the right questions.

I wasn't sure about the induction kit to be honest, I know they don't really do very much beyond add noise, I'd already thought about putting it back to the standard system but also thought while its not doing any good it might also might not be doing any harm. It has a non-standard BOV too, though I'm not sure what kind. I'm taking it to a local specialist for an inspection as soon as I can so I know exactly whats what.
