Just bored and flicking through ebay, wont bore you with the link just the important bits...
This car was Cat C damaged in 2007 and had the 2 passenger side doors and a cill replaced. I bought the car about a year ago repaired for £6500. On buying the car it was obviously not repaired quite right. I had the rear subframe changed and a full 4 wheel alignment at a cost of £1500. The car has drove 100% since then. The colour match on the rear passenger door is ok, but if you get the right reflection on a sunny day you can see the reflection is slightly dulled. Also, this door needs a harder push to shut than the rest, but its nothing that an adjustment wouldnt sort.
Has recently had new tyres all round, and has full service history. (local garage from 30k onwards) Also, just to show how good I think the car is I have just had it serviced last week and a MOT put on it even though its not 3 years old until the end of December. (no problems what soever) You wont have to spend a penny for a while on this car!!
I have also put a Venom tuning box on this car and have run it for about 25 thousand miles!! If you drive really really gently you can get 60-65 MPG!!! I always drove it fairly hard (nothing over 70 your honour lol) and I always got 48-52MPG with no fuss depending what fuel your using. (that supermarket crap is a waste of time) Also, it is supposed to be running around 160BHP so is a little quicker!! Most of all, it pulls well in 6th for overtaking which they dont do as standard. This tuning box cost nearly £400 and you can see the details by googling 'Venom tuning box'. Top speed (where permissable of course) is more than the book figures! (allegedly)
