im looking in to getting rid of my bmw and ive been offered a swap for a 1.6 sport, which im happy with just a few things

what does a 99 t reg car come with as standard? air-com? elecy?
how can you tell its a 1.6, i used to have a 1.4 sport and the engine bay to my eye looks the same, is there anyway of telling the difference?

im in coventry and the car is in chester, i dont wana drive all the way there to find out its not a 1600, ive got photos of my old 1400 and he sent me a photo of his 1600 and there are a few slight differences but i had an older model with power steering or aircon so i ashumed it would look different

That's why I asked the license plate, not the year.

I don't get the whole "i dont want to give out the plate" and blanking of plates on pics on the net, i mean, the car will be driven, and people can see the plates when its on the road?

Just ask him what spec it is, ie windows, air con?

As for engine, ask for the engine number as this will tell you.
