The year will be determined by autotrader because its an import - it'll be a 2003 imported in 2009.
I don't think it looks too bad - BHP is dreaming and the price is about a grand or 2 thick but I don't reckon thats a bad car considering the mods and a new clutch in the mix.
So, yes, it turns out that it was imported in 2009. The guy has read the mileage off his dash so it has done a lot less than the 77k he stated as it was converted to mph on import. As for the power, he has no evidence of the power but reckons it's between 315 and 330 as it's quicker off the mark than a friend's car, but the only mod is an induction kit and what sounds like a D1 throttle controller. The thing is, it's not clear why it would be the 300bhp engine in the first place so the power sounds a complete work of fiction (the woman that sold it to him told him it was 330bhp). And, finally on price, just a couple of hundred reduction, so not really playing ball.
Ill tell you exactly why. Because autotrader thinks its a 2009car which would have a 300 bhp engine which means whatever mongtard sold it to him did the exact same thing and said 'well its 300 stock and the induction kit box says that it adds 15-30 bhp ergo I now have a 330 bhp car'
Sadly reality said 'you have a 276 with a flat spot in the acceleration due to heat soak'!!!
