quicker than my corsa though and i think they look good, been in a couple but not drove any
If your doing it because it is quicker then your making a big mistake mate.

Has he had it in for an MOT, did it fail? Can he show you the test slip saying *needs 2 tyres* ???
If not walk away, at a minimum offer to pay the £40 to have it tested & if it comes up ok do the deal & you'll get 10 days to get some new rubber fitter & a free retest.

That said theres been plenty people on here had them & said good things about them.
I just think buying one with no mot is a bit delving into the unknown.

Ive no idea what either is worth but surely if all it needs for an mot is 2 tyres he'd do that & sell for more :boggle:
Whats the insurance in the GTT, have you checked you can get insured on that car with the mods?
