I was tempted to snap it up until I saw this:

cars started to smoke only on idle

New turbo?

Plus hasn't this been around a bit lately? Must be something wrong with it

Christ, that car has been around for a few years, used to be immaculate 1.6 16v Sport, R-reg. I loved it. It was quite nice when it was a turbo as well, but I think the owner sold it on to someone else that doesn't GAF about it.

I was thinking that too Iain. Not a fan of the rear bumper and exhaust system, currently sitting here thinking what I could do with that car

Greggg, seriously, don't.

He drives it too hard, used to be well looked after, now, it's a dog.

yes, your right mate. Was built and owned/looked after buy someone who i met at the ace cafe. He sold it on to some chavy boy who i see giving it full death at pod a few time's. Shame was a nice car at one point
