Good choice! Go for a 08+ if budget allows to try nd avoid the VVT issue. Theresa thread somewhere on here with a list of effected chassis numbers

cheers for the welcome people!

got my eye on this one, dont really have a massive budget.

iv read about the vvt issues and smokey exhaust when idling, which seem to be the only major things to look out for.
