Mk1, not a massive fan of the 2 tbh. I was hoping to go and look at one tomorrow but the seller seems to be wasting my time oddly.

Judging by the experience of many, you may have to. One of the down sides of a rare car.

Welcome to the forum, good luck with the hunt.

There's been a right old carry on between this guy who bought a mk1 from this other member. Turns out the engine is well and truly fooked (oval bores I think). This other guy's involved too who apperently done work on the engine beforehand. It's very complicated but there's been mention of an engine being swapped. Last I heard they where checking engine numbers re the V5.
Anyway it's all gona kick off at the North West meet this month apparently.
