Bugger! I was all excited about that too lol. It does seem very dodgy though, listed as a 5 door, pics taken from a dealer site for a 53 plate too. Hmmm. Bloody good job I came here first though really. Well spotted T_J_G! Thanks.

No worries mate. Have you called him to ask about the pics. It does suggest though it's probably in crap condition! There's plenty around!

Just got in touch with the guy, he said his brother had placed the advert for him and has no idea why he would use pictures from a dealers website. He's going to contact him now and see what's going on, I have got the reg off him and MOT certificate number.

you can do a basic one on autotrader for free I think. Other than that try AA or RAC, think they will have a garantee aswell!

Cheers for the replies. I've done a vehicle check, comes back clear HPI, theft etc. I just need the VIN off the car now and then that will be verified against the DVLA database I would presume and if that comes back ok, the car is fine?

Hi

Just to update, everything seems fine with the car. I'm going back tonight to pick it up. It was all genuine. :)

Just thinking about what mods to order now...

I was thinking about getting the Carbonio CAI - How loud is this kit? Is it up there with the best?.

Forge 007p - What does this sound like? I do want to hear the noise, I was contemplating the spiltr, but I've spotted some bad reports on here so I think I'll steer clear. What about the Baileys? What's that like? I do want noise as well as performance!!

There's loads more I want for it, but these'll do for now. Give me your suggestions, my pocket is on fire haha.

Good glad it's genuine! Pics tonight then!;)

Forge 007 won't make a noise unless combined with a cold air induction kit.

Carbonio and BMC CDA seem to be the top rated induction kits.
