This car started out with just under 220BHP on 100RON fuel; the chances of it really making 280BHP are slight at best. I know; I've got one.

i see it on autorader also & 280 is clearly, as already said total bollox, bu t my adice is search around a bit & you can find a decent example with FSH which is IMO more important & even with standard BHP you'll luv unless yer used to ferrarri or sumin

& FYI big boy exhaust = dealer trying to sell sumin that is merely a big exhaust nothin gmore nothing less
0-60 will probably be high 5 seconds & a dump valve is what goes pssshhhht when u release accelerator (if its a VTA vent to atmosphere) but of little/no performance significance

PS note it's a dealer & sounds like a dealer pricce compared o glasses guide
