That car looks like it's been well looked after. I'd take that over a 20vt worth 2k, but I'd rather have a 3k+ 20vt if you know what I mean ;\)

£2000 will get you a 16vt or 20v n/a ... or a 20vt that will probably need money spending on it \:\)

If you want power and mods in the future get a 16VT for that money, 250bhp (fly) + is fairly easy on a 16VT but to get anything like that out of a 20V N/A is going to cost heaps

Depends if you are after more than standard BHP

Errr, that one is a VIS engine 20v na. 154BHP as opposed to 147BHP.

Surprised to see one of those at that price. Have a very good look and a very long test drive, listen to the engine carefully and make sure everything works as it should.

You could be getting a bargain there!



ps, it could be a camera issue but did you notice the dates on the photos? ;\)

It looks good, sunroof but no mention of aircon. Engine bay looks immaculate.

No mention of mileage, or have I missed that?

No mention of mileage, so assume 100k+, not that this is a problem...check all the paperwork carefully and make use of the RAC's special offer on HPI checks ;\)

leather and no aircon could be hot if we ever have a summer again

Oh and I HATE ads written in caps, impossible to read quickly \:mad\:

I've never had a problem with leather and no air con, even after it was sat in the sun all day on the one hot day we had this year.

It has never got nearly as hot inside as my fiesta did.
