    Why would my brother lie to me about it? And I saw the log book saying RS turbo. Maybe they mixed something up there end or something but he defo sent it back and it came back with RS turbo on the log book.

    Marc isnt there a little gasket on the fuel pump? If not a fuel pump and water pump cant cost much. If the shell is clean it must be worth saving no?

    I am certain it was exactly as you said. I guess he was just lucky who he dealt with.

    Are you wanting to be banned ?
    Firstly insulting DVLA/ HML
    then my statistics
    then me

    I just wonder why you are even on the site

    And still NOT ONE FACT just wild statements with vague reference to internet sites without any link.
