Is it true the 3MPS doesn't allow you to play cd-r or cd-rw's?

The only big thing bugging me about buying a mk1 3MPS is the smokey turbo issue :/ what do I look for when buying one? Let it run for ten mins on idle?

Yes that's it, but on a warm engine. Even if it does it may be fixeable very cheaply. Read up on the forum search.

If you got a March 08 onwards one it should have,along with an uprated turbo.Other features are gun metal alloys,piano black interior dress up kit & leather/alcantara seats,iirc i think thats it

Does the 3MPS have a boost gauge in the middle of the rev counter and speedo or is that just the new version?
