Looks like Razza's old car. I thought he sold it to a Swedish fella though!

 

It's not a 2000 car either, DVLA cock up caused it to be registered as a W reg. It was NOT sold new in the UK, it was an import like all others. The rear wheels also have a different offset, but that's just nit-picking :)

 

There's a thread about it somewhere on here, but can seem to find it...

It was too good to be true. The car has a had a bump or too aswell....;)

 

H.

 

That it has! Not a pretty one either! I see it was listed as HPI checked.. That's interesting..

 

Just trying to remember what happened to the old engine. Was it not down to when it got 'bumped'? Didn't it damage the engine or something like that?

 

I do recall working on the car after it was repaired and I think it was done to a good standard though.

Getting things mixed up there a bit Graham :)

 

The bump was before Razza bought it, the rear suspension had taken a bit of a hard knock but recall it was rebuilt.

 

The engine went pop when Razza owned it, it was a turbo that went pop and the compressor blades got sucked into the engine resulting in terminal damage. Razza (after a LOT of hassle) got a replacement drop in engine and turbo's fitted.

 

TBC if it's from the "known" company, if anyone confirms this or we receive a complaint the thread will be locked, until then we'll just assume it was a buyer who was sucked in by the original misguided and incorrect description.
