Right ive been offered a Mk2 W plate VTS in black
19k miles from new (been stored away for past year or so)
No MOT
No Tax
Just needs new passenger Fog lamp
&
Bonnet hinge needs sorting out for MOT
I think it had a lil knock at front but its had a new wing and headlight, just needs front arch liners

Unless i offer him my JL audio sound system for a MOT lol

If the mileage is genuine with history I would spend the few pennys on making it road worthy again and definintly swap...

Yeh he said its all HPI clear and gave me the reg to check if i wanted to
also 1 owner from new
Trouble is i recently had my bros VTS for a week and got fed up of how much fuel it drinks, let alone the insurance of £170 a month so.....i dunno although i could have it and sell it for more.

you should swap!! vts dont drink too much if u drive normal, plus petrol is cheap once moted will be worth alot with low milage

Front fogs aren't an mot fail.

As above fogs dont matter and iirc you could remove the bonnet for the mot and then the hinge wouldnt be a fail ;)

this car was on ebay not long ago. it needed a screen aswell i think the listing said and the tape on the front seems a bit hooky its why i didnt have a stab at it.
