I think he means engine flushed prior to the oil change, his English isn't the best by the look of it.

3 pictures, 1 of the rear end, some documents and the last one, like it's all wrapped up ready for the big reveal

The best part is the 'like a remap' BUT NOT! K&N Typhoon

it's done just over 4k miles since 2012 and is currently on Sorn

Yeah that ''frech import'' one has been hanging around for a while now, been relisted numerous times.

He's had a few imports for sale, I'll never understand how someone can be switched on enough to know how to import a car from Japan (I wouldn't have a clue) and yet have such appalling standards of spelling and grammar and a complete inability to create a coherent ebay advert.

When posters on this forum criticise spelling and English then we know it must be pretty awful, innit!

What's the fixation with 'roof scoops'? Or am I missing something?

Roof scoops clearly make your car much faster obviously you use a spoon to get ice cream it takes more time than if you use a scoop= faster lol

The thing is that bugeye doesn't appear to look too bad and isn't outrageously overpriced... but if I was looking for one I wouldn't even waste my time going to view it, just based on the standard of the advert.

I've bought bits off this guy previously no problems nice guy to deal with packaging is bang On even drops prices quite a bit if bought outside eBay but still accepts PayPal and can send invoices too
unlike me who sent a key to the wrong address although I had the address right in front of me to copy off !!!

I actually rang up and enquired about that car as you can't make any sense out of his ad. and to be fair, speaks like he writes!

Still trying to sell, although no longer describing it as a ''frech import'' (Not so ''frech'' any more given how long he's been trying to flog it for stupid money)

It does have low mills, folding mires and no nocks or leeks.

"This is a mint car but has small bubbling on the rear arch"

So...not mint then?
