I wouldn't touch it with somebody ELSE's remote-controlled bargepole, at any price. HTH.

No, it's because it's been fcuked-about with. Non-standard scoop, vta dump-valve.... sets all my alarm bells ringing. Also, I don't believe the mileage looking at that engine bay... mine's got 110,000 MILES on it and it looks loads better than that. And I'm not one for cleaning engine bays. It's ****-easy to make bodywork look good.

actually it has the later lights and bonnet for the slant intercooler. Either done for style or had a front end.

Bought my ra for £3300 though it was a year older. I wouldn't touch it at this price mate as they do need high maintenance and costly repairs if your unlucky. Look for a standard one and then decide what you want to do to it.

Yes but don't actually know how to post them on here. I will have a go. Don't get me wrong though mine just looked bog standard in white . Nothing special but part of the fun is building the car to how you want it. I just do bits as and when i can afford it. These do burn a hole in your pocket though mate . Fuel economy is real bad.
