Should have a certain criteria for advertisers:

'IF YOU CANNOT SPELL YOU CANNOT SELL'

Its a major gripe of mine and I really hate it

He was just pulling numbers out of the air to make up the magical 18k he reckons has been spent on the car.

Bad spelling + shouty caps = retard

Turbo Timer £234

Fuel Pump £432 w.t.f

Do these people think, that people who actually know something about cars don't read these adds?

Doesn't mention the respray it's had from silver to blue though?

But it does beat everything including Range Rover Sports now,so it must be f***ing quick considering even the very latest Supercharged 510bhp version only just dips under 6 seconds to 60mph and 140mph flat out.

What I found strange was that he listed new disks and pads as a mod? I wonder if the car ever received the oil change mod?
