Very nice looking car - interior is too pale for me - but isn't it a bit too pricey?  :-\ :-\

Had every faith in you finding the link  ;) ;)

If the letter from Vx is genuine, then that is down to Vx if the belt snaps before 2015 :-\

Suspect money pit though, as it seems to have had alot of recent work... needs four new tyres if you're feeling fussy :-\ tried and tested budget tyres are one thing, but a brand you've never heard of...phrases like 'front wheel alignment juyst done, and now spot on' screams wishbones, especially  with new front tyres.

There is just one slight oil leak which is from the oil pressure switch located just above the sump
as it is so minor I've not changed it - a very easy and accessible component to change.
You can see this on the photo along with the waxoyl which has been sprayed there as well.

Nah mate, that's not waxoil, that's oil that's been pissing out of the oil pressure switch because the pressure release valve is stuck solid.... which is probably also why the camcovers have been 'resealed'.

No, Cheap Chineese hid ballasts and bulbs fitted in original 'glass' non-projector model headlights, with no washers or self levelling.
