Guys I've found a K1 for sale 20k miles on a 2007 - 07 plate for 15k. Did they make the K1 at this age as I've checked Parkers for the value and its only displaying 2008 onwards. Obviously if this is incorrect the car is highly over priced! lol Cheers for the advice Jim

Hey guys!! When I drive my car in 2nd gear at about 20mph 1800 rpm my car makes a vibrating noise which is not nice to listen to. When my hand is on the gearstick it stops making it. I took it to the garage and 5 different mechanics could not fix it! Ive tried having a look my self but...

Car started making a funny noise last night. Seemed to when accelerating in gears 1 - 3. In first if i pull away quite sharply, and in 2nd and 3rd, when boost comes in and torque picks up loads. Kind of like a whining/grating noise. Also when turning sharp corners when i was in a housing...
