Seems EXPENSIVE? by vargas on Tue Apr 06, 2010 8:10 pm
Having a quick trawl around fleabay and spotted this

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... 0513037137

Just asked the guy how much tax and mot and got the response just out of tax and test

Then asked what will be on it for £995 and got the response

995 is the asking price or best offer it will be sold as is

So the question is whats it worth?

Check the engine management light comes on when you put the key in, some dealers take the bulb out, it should go out after start up,look for oil leaks around the heads and it should pull well and smooth if it doesnt it could be number 1 injector faulty.
