Never tried one so can’t comment there is an option to tune it to 265bhp with GAD or one of the other forum sponsors

Is the canvasite one not worth pursuing? Lovely colour combo, good price and the correct engine output

This one.

Did not think he was selling the car

Perhaps not, but worth a PM just incase. Perhaps he got disheartened as it had been up a while. Nothing to lose

I have to agree with JB, that grille is not right, looks a bit Pikey, the number plate bolts ? what is going on there ?. The interior colour is nice but that body colour is awful. Reminds me of the old Austin 1100 Aubergine which was fine in the 70's but a bit been there, done that now. The one gearbox service would concern me too, the damage could have already been done and be about to reveal itself. Can't even check the MOT history Dealer reviews not good

Oh I did not realise that but thought the 264 bhp one is the better out of the two and the gearbox.

 

[Lee Endean]

Same engine but the 265 bhp one comes with the 7g+ gearbox not the 7g
