You'd have thought they'd have replaced the missing indicator and removed the empty bottle before taken the pics..... hardly screams quality maintainence or care.

Yep, that's Owen's old car.

A real bargain for anyone wanting a high power motor. All the work has been done, and well done at that. Lots of hours and research went into making that motor.

...a real bargain at £4490

I went to view this car 4 months ago, it has a number of very very serious issues and the seller is a Bu11ftter.

Rash do you know the joker who is selling this car in "perfect working order" ?????? its an absolute dissgrace that they are still advertising it on their website.
I called them to check that the car was great and explained I was coming a long way, the Human on the phone explained its perfect.

On arrival there was no oil on the dipstick and 2 litres of coolant needed. Once started the engine sounded horrible, Its not possible to bring the car on boost, the suspension is knocking, exhaust leaking, running on gas because the Human wouldnt put more the £2 of petrol in it for the test drive. Its a absolute dissgrace.

After waisting both my time and money getting there the Human said theres nothing wrong with it and it just needs a new solinoid, he has no idea what he is doing and didnt even appologise for my troubles.

Please tell me this is not someone you know????? he needs stringing up not helping to sell it.

Hi james...
nah dont know him personally but know 'of' him.
They rang me a few weeks back trying to sell it to me and deal it on a Golf diesel i had at the time.. I never got to see the car in the flesh but he mentioned he was looking circa £3.5k for it which when he was describing it to me and listing the mods seemed quite cheap.

Nothing ever came of it as i sold the Golf to someone else but didnt realise it was in that bad a condition.. Glad i didnt waste my time going to meet him and he's only about 40miles from me....

Next time if you see something this neck of the woods give me a shout and i'll give it a once over for you - save you the time and hassle...
