Maybe, but I think I want it.

You'd be surprised what you can squeeze out of an 8v with the right cam, a well ported big valve head and the correct fuel/air setup.

cant see a problem with the price going by other MkIIs that have been up for 8k+

and the dogs that people are happy to pay 3k for. thats had a lot of work done to it

His biggest issue will be his location

You will struggle to see 165bhp, around 140bhp is closer to the mark.

Is the owner on drugs or what? It's a spitting image of my very first mk2 8v and that was worth a third of the price 10 years ago. Pisstaker.
