oil changes every 1000 miles with regular filter changes

wtf that's like an oil change after every third visit to the petrol station

that front grill is horrid, and his over use of a wide angle lens makes him look like a complete bell end

They seem to be going for big amounts on eBay at the moment .....

Personally I wouldn't pay that for a cat D

if it wasnt for the fact of it being a CAT D and that grille it would be a decent car, decent turbo, and supporting mods include porkie brembos

yep, easily they wouldnt buy a second hand door like me or you they prive up new door and ancillaries, labour time and spraying the whole side of the car to blend, so yes a damaged door could easily be a cat d (as cat d is the lowest catagory as well)

I don't think it's 'that' bad. I don't like the grille or the wheels.

I think we have a case of follow the following going on.

It only needs a few cosmetic changes imo,the std mk4 looks crap untill you change a few bits here and there.A very fast car for the money.

It's a fish eye lens. A wide angle is what he should have used.

A UWA lens is the best lens to use for taking car pics I thought?

Where's the problem !!

The problem is, there's a bandwagon and people are riding on it.

My old Focus was a cat D write off and the boot floor was crumpled, as well as the rear trailing arm being VERY badly distorted :shocked: I would never feel easy about buying a car with "history" - just not worth the risk in my opinion.
