Why is it rare? It has a random numbered sticker in the window? Doubt the gearbox would last long with that power, paint looks a little flat in some photos, why buy it a couple of months ago and spend £15k then just to swap? That site has so many ropy motors

' L' plate is 1994, modified slowly in a few months? Dyno print out and who mapped it? seems you need to ask a few questions.

He said he bought it standard a couple of months ago but it had a fully forged motor when he got it.
Running 350bhp on a td04.....lol.....
Its not rare and hes not spent 15K on it. Total BS.

I wouldn't buy a car off that website if you gave me the money. Full of sheds and idiots who know naff all.

A quick pm to Alan or Martyn will verify the Engine Tuner build.

Number 479 looks like a Japanese Parking Permit to me. I have one on my nearside rear window but because of the tints I can only just see it and keep forgetting its there!

Nice scenery, only thing missing is open-bonnet pics.

My car's running 550bhp. The dyno print that came with it says 362, but it feels much more than that, especially after the last service.

Also, if yours is well looked after why run the risk of getting fleeced?

I think you get the general feeling about this.
Hopefully you'll be pleased that you were wise enough to ask advice.

Good luck with getting one you'd like.
