Pretty sure you can get that up rev'd. I'd give Mark a call if I were you. He's a thoroughly nice bloke.

Don't have any engine or interior shots unfortunately, but interior is in great condition. I don't think it looks dated, the plastics do feel dated however, very cheap, think they got better from 06 onwards but it doesn't bother me too much. Plastics are no worse than an EP3, but I think it got criticised because it was a £27k car new, and competing against beemers etc.

Thanks, yes will consider an up rev once I'm settled with it, I think it can take it from 275bhp to around 300bhp as long as I change to hi flow cats. I understand the torque is currently restricted in first couple of gears, and the up rev can remove this restriction. Not sure what it would do to clutch life though!

Ok, no probs. Didn't think they cost that much when new though. :shock:
