[Andy Jeffries]

Okies..just havin the usual ebay browse and came across this...

In the desctiption it says it has a limited edition 16v engine? was there at any point a special engine used or is he talking rubbish?

My thoughts is he is playin on the fact that their are less 16v's than 8v's?

cheers

Its bull - I think he means its got the "rarer than the 8v" 16v engine.

The only "limited edition" 16v I know of had a yummy G-Lader bolted to it!!

Maybe he's refering to the 'race tuning'

Thats what I thought - did notice the lack of 16v cars aout when I was looking for mine!

16v G60 engine would be considered rare, there are some GTI Engineering ones too however hes put that it has a Cat and its tuned...

But I think youre right, I think he's playing on the fact that valvers are rarer that 8v's but theres no harm in asking!

Whats with the caravans?

Hahaha.

As in its been rolling roaded to 2% CO2 and 6 deg BTDC.  

WoW!!!!!


Without mods (and he lists none) "race tuned" in this case means "is running as it should".
