Hmm, never been in a turbo'ed car then.

Note, there is one slight little problem this car was involved in an accident around a year ago

The second one is a CAT C write off.

Details:

This vehicle is recorded as being a write-off by an insurance company on 18/05/2007.

Status is CAT C EXTENSIVE DAMAGE.
