Hi
It's the 2.5 BMW engine
I'm in Carnock near Dunfermline
Another finding, the light on the lowbox switch stays on. It's not in lowbox and I can't make it change.
Here are a few more pics as requested. I chucked a bucket of water over it.

I went out for another drive today, this is a pretty good car.

Hi,
An update, I've put a set of 16" alloys on it now. There are two good Pirelli Scorpions and two legal Pirelli Scorpions.
I've taken the hurricanes off as the back two are probably not legal.
The spare is a 16" alloy and there is a good 16" michelin on a steel wheel.
The 18" hurricanes are included in the sale.
I've applied for a V5, I don't think the guy i bought it off ever did send it away. >:(
I did an HPI check last night and it's all clear.
not stolen
no high risk recorded
no finance outstanding
no colour changes
10 owners
3 private plates, including the one thats on it.
cheers
