What do you make of this?

If it really is a turbo then its gotta be worth the money for the engine alone?

Re: What do you make of this?

Would be unusual to put dump valve if it wasn't turbocharged. However, ideal 1st car?! hmm! But I agree, if all in good nick....bargain likely.

Re: What do you make of this?

No custard, the only way it can be a 1242cc turbo is if it is a aftermarket turbo. So, who is going to phone?

Re: What do you make of this?

I like the "idea first car" bit

Would it be a 1.2 turbo, or a bigger engine in a 1.2 chassis?

Good point. I know you havent said its a GT but i must have been or is an S/SX as it has the black bumpers, no rear headrests etc.

Its strange, must be a conversion.
