One thing though is for sure the history needs to be bang on the money and done when required, not when the owner could be bothered!! Take it for a drive and check that the turbo gives a noticeable PULL when it comes in and check when things like the MAF sensor where changed, they are not expensive but if it has been serviced well, it will have been changed because of the mileage. If you do not buy it for some reason, let me know, I am in the market for a newer car, what mark is it? All the best anyway. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
