''every so often the car seems to redline at 5,500rpm the lad told me this is just because it needs a c20let ECU or a £60 chip puting in the current ecu. but still extremly fast and only hapens sometimes''

its way too over priced though. ive seen xe's go for 750, so cant be worth more than 850. my mate terry from down maccy d's car park bought one for 900 quid and it was a minter. shell done 3k miles from new, engine done 1k miles from new. no recipts but his mate wesley told him it was legit.

id guess he wants 2k for it which i suppose aint bad but it could be a minefield that . with it being a 93 shell too could be abit of a rotter on the underside/crossmember . just make sure to have a good look round it if he does go for it.
