EBAY Yellow 180, is this for real?
Saw this while trudging through flea bay! Seems like some pretty big claims on power? Any thoughts?

No pics of the engine fitted, I wouldnt be intrested in shots of the engine out, Id like to see the quality of the fitting. 305bhp not a chance the btcc kv6 before the judd was only 270ish.

If all the parts have been replaced with uprated items, then it might be. I'd want too see proof first though

300+ from the KV6.... not sure if that was possible without some serious serious money and probably some trips to QED or the like

Owners response to proof of power:

'i can get it on the rollers anytime bud, she went on saturday and is now pulling 286 after being tuned and regulated with new manifolds, i am going to service her this weekend and probably give her 100 miles and stick her back on, cheers for the interest bud'

So then...It was 305 BHP and now it's been tuned and regulated and is 286 BHP

He's tried to show the condition of the car in the photo's and the interior has a little wear - where are these photo's?

Other than that though, it does look tidy for a 51 plate...
