Looks a nice car, but if you have only just bought it, please have a read of this.

A thread from a while ago about your car.

its a nice car, one of the first turbo ones created i believe,

if there is a worry about the state of the shell im sure you can pick up a decent car cheap and swap all the bits over.

PS if you ever want to get rid of the gauge mounts id love to get my hands on them!

Only just made aware of this,I have quite a few mots and the service records,I will post up the previous MOTS later on.I'm pretty sure the mileage of 70k is genuine but I will double check the paperwork for sure.

At the end of the day it's a 12yr old plus car and lots of car have had some sort of accident damage.My mate is a panel beater and sprayer,I am gonna get him to have a good look at the car over the weekend.As

mentioned above,I could always swap the parts onto another shell if I really wanted to,the shell seems fine though and the car drives superbly well.To be honest I had the car pretty cheap,nowhere near the asking price,so it's not all bad hopefully.

Yes I have now read the above,a bit diasppointing really because the car looks and drives so very good indeed.

Guage mounts,well you never know,I will bear you in mind if I do decide to sell them in the future.

Thanks.Lee.

I have just been through the paperwork and I have every MOT and the service book and it all corresponds as far as I can see,current mileage is just over 70k.

Thanks.Lee.

Don't worry about that thread mate, a lot of cars have had a knock or two in the past.

I'm pretty sure it has got its rods and pistons as the power has been with that car a long time and the standard rods would have long since gone.

yes I agree with the above a lot of cars have had some sort of bump,paint,panel replacement etc,the car is over 12 yrs old now so i guess things do tend to happen.

I agree the pistons/rodst etc must have been done,confirmed by the guy who built the engine so that's good enough for me as you say the standard pistons/rods would never have taken that sort of power for long.

Thanks.Lee.

If your happy with the car that's all that matters really. I only posted the link to make you aware of possible problems.

I am more than happy with the car,I think I had it for a very good price,for a 300bhp car and over 30k spent on it,I can't fault it so far.

No problem at all reg the link,much appreciated.

Cheers.Lee.
