Cheers H Welcome mate, for me that mileage is not an issue with a FSH and as you say it also looks well cared for, having had a turbo re build is a bonus as you will not have to fork out for it yourself, all to often cars are sold when they need one not just after!, I would get a look at the bill for the work and give the garage a call if in doubt to see what exactly they did and why, an am sure you will get a lot of help on here though if needed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hiten55 Posted November 8, 2006 Author Share Posted November 8, 2006 is it an imported jspec car or a uk car? modifications / spec list? its a j spec but was imported new. Theres no mods at all to the engine - not even an air filter or exhaust..... Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobSheffield Posted November 8, 2006 Share Posted November 8, 2006 Shouldnt be a massive problem. Talk to the owner to find out why, there may be a legitimate reason. If it passes a test drive with no smoke it should be ok Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
