A definate NO NO NO.... shoddy exhaust, chav graphics and a seriously bog standard supercharger that would blow the engine.
I could think of ?3,595 better spent on a fully tuned mark 1 or a moderately tuned mark 2

Ad seems to contradict itself at times. If any one person knew the car inside out it would've sold first time around. All well and good wishing to believe the sellers description but those that know these cars are the ones to listen to.

As for the seller, shame on you for advertising it in such a poor condition, to me that would indicate how well the car has been looked after............................need I say more?

Scary ad, a definite no-no. Just doesn't seem like someone I would like to buy off! Also wth 'don't believe everything you read and hear' well not from you I won't lol.
