Well.......here's what happened.......
Silver one was advertised as 'mint'. Was just starting to get a bit rough round the edges IMO. Averaged 1 owner per year. Didn't have the gearbox rebuild as said it had been.
MRC tuned to 480bhp.
Alright - but after advertising as mint i expected more.
So.......
On to car #2. The seller was extremely helpful, decent guy, I was hearing what I wanted with every question, sounding better by the day. got home tonight and was just about to book a train and then.......
He decided to keep the damn thing
Result - still looking
