As said above belonged to Darren on here, they must of done a good job of repairing it originally as Darren didn't even know it was catergorised until he traded it in with Daniel.

hi guys!!! any questions fire them my way, i will do my best to answer them.

with regards to it being cat d, i had no idea about it. tbh it was naivity (sp?) that i rushed into buying it without checking, and as such paid the price on re-sale. the car never had one problem in the time i had it. all the belts were changed while in my possession, and serviced when needed. think only other work it had was new tyres.

the seats are cobra monacos, not recaros as mentioned in the ad. the carpetting was done by me and a mate and looked a million times better than what it looks now. though i did lol @ "professionally boarded out".

the car was epic, and to date, still the best car i have owned. it was such a hoot to drive, if i had the spare cash i would be bidding on it too!!!!

any other questions then drop me a pm.

does anyone think this could be close to what power output they are saying it is running at . a whole 225 bhp .? or is an over the top estimate .

A flamer kit is a spark plug in the exhaust, which when you press a button sparks, so when you rev in Maccy's car park flames come out and chav slut knickers fall instantly.

To get rid of that, it'll need a new backbox (probably fitted in the back box, could be anywhere after the cat though) as that one will have a hole drilled in it. Assuming you don't want to keep it (after a while the back bumper will deform and melt) of course...

On the basis of the flame kit alone, I'd say it's been abused since Darren moved it on.

i have asked about this , as this was the only thing that put me off and he beleives it can be removed in about 5 minutes with no problems at all :) anyone have a clue where the number of 225 bhp came from ? is this realistic for the mods done to the engine ?

never had mine rolling roaded, but both justin and ali said it felt quicker than both of theirs (alis had had remap and other mods).

Cheap car mind.

I remember Dan having it for while, looked pretty good.

IIRC Dan sold it onto someone who he knew and is on here from Bristol - Daniel or Justin-172 will now.
