Re: So this is what you get for 200 notes

looking very tidy that, dont know anything about the Sei but it looks worth £200 possibly even triple

has something been living in the dash on the passenger side?

Sei' Abarths with bad engines seem to be worth 200£, cause that's how much I got mine for with a blown engine. Looks like a nice car

Why did you not fix the engine?

Re: So this is what you get for 200 notes

Somehow, the previous owner went from the limiter in 3rd to 2nd... needless to say the engine didn't survive the change

levemir, you'll hate the tacho location!

Yeah and and my P75 engine sounds sweet and had bags of pulling power right up to the limiter, not a good thing in the lower gears when the tacho is over there

Actually being honest, the whole Sei dash is a nightmare! So little information on it, you have to wait for a warning light, which is generally a 'stop now or buy a new engine' light. That's why I will install an after-market dash of some kind.
