Neil,

Ta for the info, ill have a read of your link.

Are they generally well looked after cars? Scoobs seem to fall into 2 categories of people who garage them most of the time, and treat them nicely, and boy racer twats!

The S2k seems a bit more classy, and hopefully better kept?

Mark,

A lot of the owners cars are in good condition, and the insurance costs keep the max power boys away. You'll find that not many are seriously tuned as there's not much you can do to get more horses out of this engine without spending a sh1tload of cash. Intakes and Exhausts are the usual extent of tuning.

Not many wheels come with the right offset and the ones that do are expensive so most are still running on the original 16s

I've seen a few badly treated cars when I was looking for mine, but all the cars I've seen off the board have been immaculate

If your lucky with Steven's car he had both an Injen intake and a HKS exhuast on his.

If its a long term bored member its probably a safe bet
