Ok Bedford...

I agree that the facelift looks a bit better but I would not overlook a pre-facelift if it was the right price and well looked after. After all I can just buy a facelift bumper if I feel it it needed.

It's not just the lights that are different Brett..
If you're staying pre-face then look for a 30th Anni, but personally, I'd only ever go facelift. Another premier for me, would be spot on.
Lighter flywheel, different steering rack, suspension changes etc..

I'll keep an eye out then in that case. Need to read up them a little more tbh but it's looking odds on for me to get one very soon.
Not sure I will get a premier for the money I am spending on one tbh.

What you looking to spend all in do you think?
Tbf, mileage isn't much of an issue for a K20.. Just make sure there's no rattles from the chain, it's not chewing through oil etc.
Get yourself on CTRO, not a bad place to start for info.

I know it's been modded but by the sounds of the advert it has been done with quality parts.
The lack of service history is a bit of a worry but then if reciepts are there to prove it's been well looked after then surely nothing to worry about.
I have no hang ups about buying a standard car btw.

Are they all chain driven?
I am skeptical about mileage tbh even though I know it doesn't really matter if serviced correctly. Would you buy one on around 110,000?

Yeah they're all chain driven dude.
I'd agree, that looks to be priced pretty high for what it is. The engines seem really strong, I wouldn't be concerned about buying one at 110k.
The parts on that seem a bit meh tbh, Spoon replica system, lots of carbon wrap and led's / red bolts / painted bits, EBC brakes are a bit wang, so basically it's got coilovers, a tegiwa intake and camber arms / control arm.
If you had a haggle you could probably get this 54 plate facelift for the same price, 82k, FSH, gash exhaust granted, but it's had OEM brakes replaced of late.

Yeah that is a lovely example. I keep forgetting to search for over £4K for haggling adjustments.
