exhaust was standard on the axgt...

i paid 1600 with 80k on the clock, 6 months tax, 12 months mot, 3 months parts and labour warranty, and sum mint 15" wolf race alloys that aint been kerbed at all!!
i would say if that 1 on 60k had fairly long mot then its...
Yep thats rite, i am actually happy with an insurance company

HIC put my insurance up the same as what it would have gone up if id changed to a pug 106 1.4 xsi
i couldnt c any valvers that were pretty mint in my price range though and seemed u could get a gd condition rsi for a lower price
.Dave.
Nicky, its 8.6 secs on parkers thats where i got it from
im on 15s 195/45 tyres, so will mine b a fair bit slower????
