Service History
Comprehensive service history from day one
Every MOT from new
Pretty much every bill

Chassis
It has been subjected to regular treatment and there were no advisories on the MOT. There are no receipts documenting any other work so I believe the chassis to be all original too.

On the road
The car is fit and healthy "Pulls like a train" according to Mat Smith. The recent remap by Joolz has also made it very driveable with no nasty shunting and pulling smoothly throughout the rev range.
The suspension and steering are all new so the car tracks straight and true with no knocking / banging etc.


For sale only as I am planning to do some major refurb work on my house so please no silly offers / timewasters / test pilots - not at all welcome.
