you looking to buy it?

to be honest it doesnt look all that special, crappy k-sport brakes and cheap ebay headlights. doesnt look all that clean either. im sure for £12k there is better out there.

whats the engine spec? bhp? who built it/mapped it?

That's a fug ugly car. Looks like it's been driven through a Halfords front window. If that's what £12k gets you, it's time to start looking at Bmws.

That's a bit on the toppy side for a Blob. I just paid 10k from a dealer for mine, widebody 2005 with 70k miles.

I went to school with the guy (that was 25 years ago!) who owns that dealership in Southend, and know plenty of people who've bought cars from there and never heard bad words about it.

What is the problem with the K Sport brakes - I looked into buying some at one point, ended up getting Brembos off a WR1 instead off a mate, but didn't realise there was a problem with the others?
