Why the hell did you buy this car not knowing what it is?? And how the hell do you insure it not knowing what it is?? How can you mod it not knowing what it is?? How can you expect anyone to help when you give incorrect information to start with??

Chaps, vitasport is in Japan, so no V5 and not an engine that will be listed in the UK EPC.
