Meaning, when you come to collect the car, inspect it. insure the engine is sweet and pulls well
Grr!!
I hate the way eBay has got everyone saying they've 'won' an item - you don't win it, you buy it!!
:end rant:
Looks like a good buy though!
Well it is an auction site and you do "win" an auction...

Thats the deal I had with the seller as we couldnt arrange prior viewing, I'm going to view it properly tomorrow and if its all coool, collect it in the week.
Went to see it this morning and its good - a strong engine with no knocking of sound of cam wear.
The remap is unbelieveable - it just seems to want to spin all the time. Standard engine produced 160bhp, tuned at 193bhp.
It just needs one stone chip touching up as theres surface rust, a stone chip is windscreen sorting, jacking point cover.
Seller said he will get it valet'd for me. First job is to get the belt done

Sounds like a sweet motor! Always nice to be reminded that you can still get a bargain on ebay now and then! Look forward to seeing some more pics of it once you've picked it up fella

Will defo get some pics up, first thing is to get belt done, then a service.
What a bargain mate, been looking around for these myself, and as mentioned, on autotrader and piston heads, same car for ~8k!! So jealous!!

Good looking car you got there. 80k for a derv is nothing, nothing for a modern day petrol engine either if looked after.
Love the spelling in the advert.

If there is a lesson to learn it is not to take your car to seat in Wolverhampton , £700 for cam belt change ..actual cost £250 inc water pump £450 is quite a difference, that's if the seller actually got a quote.
Picked up the car and well chuffed with it.
The gearstick is stiff and doesnt return to neutral itself which makes changing gear hard sometimes, especially from 2nd to 3rd
