Silly power claim aside, from the pictures it does look like quite a tidy car...

Haha. Seems he's a bit eccentric to say the least. Advertising 300 BHP but cant confirm it. May as well say 500 if u can't confirm it...

But as others said, underneath the bad advert it looks a half decent little 5

Indeed it does, awaiting his phone number to find out more about the car.

Is it even running an air filter? Looks like it's got some sort of intake trumpet straight on the turbo :confused:

Lol just thought- I said it wasn't a great advert, but it's got a thread and loads of people talking about it :P

That boost hose onto the carb will pop off at a bar of boost without a mikalor clamp and custom bracket... I had issues like that lol!
