Been round Brands Hatch a few times in mine and you can have a good laugh.

You must see if the car will rev up to the red line easily, if not the MAF may be shot, also shouldnt be too noisy. Should pick up around 1800 revs as the turbo kicks in and pull right up to the gear change.

Oil will be black even after a recent oil and filter change, but shouldnt have any mayo in the filler cap, or on the dipstick. Turbo pipes have a habit of splitting/falling off, but if it revs freely should be OK.

Had my belts done at 40,000 cant remember what the recommended milage was, but you could always knock them down a bit if they havnt been done!!!

It's def the 101 version, been getting quotes for insurance! Will give it a drive tomorrow and let you's know how i get on
