It's not a factory duotone car, the missing four years MOT are due to it being off the road in Prof Dave's tenure of ownership, and the MOT it currently wears...........well I shall say I have my doubts, as it was driven across to my place piddling out fuel from leaking o rings on the fuel rail, fresh, as in wet underseal on the sills, and with a variety of faults that would have precluded all but the most lenient of "Stevie Wonder" tests.

ABS and traction control fault

SRS DCU defective, along with both side impact sensors


EWS "modified" with extra relays and wiring to allow the car to be started........in gear

IPK that originated from a Mk2, wasn't coded to the car, at least until I got my hands on it

So if you fancy a Starlight Silver car, with a coat of blue in places, with 150k on the clock, and an MOT not worth the paper it was written on, then this is the car for you
