Default Another classic ad with rather large claims!

I haven't checked out classics that are for sale for quite some time now, but Jesus Christ, what a load of bollox!

Every other advert seems to quote massive power figures......but no bloody remap.

A Colin McRae engine with a 5th injector? also 360 on a TD05 with I'm guessing 440cc injectors and no mention of a remap and boost controller

Yeah, just can't decide whether I want to get a classic shape for around £3k max, keep in my garage and use at weekends (as I have a ford focus for travelling to work) or sell my focus and buy a mint 04/05 wrx for around £5k and use that as my every day car. I only live 3 mile from work, but due to the country roads, there is no way I am riding a bike to work!

Decisions decisions.
