Sounds proper sorted mate. Where in Scotland are you located?

Also was the engine and mods done by yourself? If so do you have receipts for the work?

Lastly whats the reg of the car bud.

Cheers

edit out the email address and the number he sent, although it is on his pistonhead ad but thought it best to remove.

Lies I can tell from what he told me or in the adds:
-Engine is not a 106 gti engine it's a 206 xsi engine
-106 gti engines are not 150 bhp standard
-B&M shifters are not adjustable
-Engine conversion was not done by him
-I can imagine hte standalone ecu and cams are lies as well tbh

Don't get me wrong, it was a sweet car when I sold it, but if a seller lies about things like the engine, who did it and what it is, I would be wary of believing anything he says. And how he looks after things looking at the wheels on it and hte nice induction kit. . .

Just incase anyone saw it on pistonheads and was interested :)
