could do with a good spit shine and introduction of a hooooover inside must admit, its got blacked out rear windows, sportex exhaust and lexus lights, dont like the lexus ones though so would change them to original, and the exhaust would be put back to a Peco like he had before it dropped off, (Peco sounded awesome on it) anyway, but just in general it wont have done alot of damage inside only having one oil change in 20,000 miles would it compared to if it was say on 70/80,000 miles plus??????

Welcome mate. Get it services asap and should be fine. As long as its been looked after and engine is sounds, shouldnt have anything to worry about.

what would you call being looked after and engine sounding good? what do i listen for if its got a performance exhaust on?? (meaning it might over power potential noise problems)
