Graeme Posted September 22, 2006 Author Share Posted September 22, 2006 i agree, thing is these days you can pick up the non vtec one (the i16) for under 800 quid?! thats a seriously rapid car great for a track car!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sutty2006 Posted September 22, 2006 Share Posted September 22, 2006 My mate bought a non vtec one for 950 and that was cheep, only thing is i am a mechanic and i can tell its been abused. Its completely standard but theres oil in the spark plug rubber case thingys, theres no back brakes (metal to metal) the front brakes are nearing the same, its rotten in places. Only other thing is he hasnt passed his test yet, or done his theory. God help him insure the thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
