Its not that bad apart from that exhaust, theres noway someone will spend 3.5k on a mk1 n/a though. Just because you spend 4.5k doesnt make it worth 4.5k.

Interesting colour, but not overly appealing.

Tractor wheels. :-:

Plus it's been to the moon and back.

I love it!

Because if his asking price is right, it means that my 120,000 mile 2 owner car must be worth about £7k! :o

I don't find it too offensive to be honest. Lose the Wheels and Exhaust and I would happily drive it. I wouldn't pay for it! But I would drive it.

What's wrong with the exhaust, I like it... it has symmetry.

Its a pile of crap, designed by some god awfull cowboy mechanics in the MR2racing.

Not been dyno tested.
Unequal exhaust length.
No back pressure
mild steel
Absolute pile of poo

Fair enough!

So functionally it's rubbish, but I like the polished silencers and twin pipe look.

HaHa! :clap: Designed by stoner racing and Kelsport. Mo Stoner was trying to sell me one, until i pointed out that they weren't using them, he shut up then. When i asked one of their drivers why not he wasn't overly polite about the whole system...... :roll:

Yup :thumleft:

If you're doing cambelts for £50, I'm almost tempted to save myself the trouble and drive the 3 hours to you to get it done :clown: :mrgreen:
