Aaron lewis Posted June 28, 2020 Author Share Posted June 28, 2020 Sorry for the late reply it was very useful as I wasn’t sure on how reliable they are but apart from the timing chain and oil consumption they are okay 😂 thanks aaron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magnet Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 Hello Aaron, It’s great that you are enquiring before purchasing, and that the forum has been of help. One, second thought, thing I would ask is how any intending purchaser is going to know if the actual car of interest suffers from high oil consumption? Not sure how easy it is nowadays, but if it were me, I would be making all possible efforts to contact the last owner to discuss this side of things. Failure to do so may be regretted. Sounds to be a very important requirement - more so than service history even?? Kind regards, Gareth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
