Default Is this 2wd on e-bay anybodys on here looks stunning

Lovely looking car & nice spec one of the best colours to.

Why would someone be selling it when they've just had the engine rebuilt,its only done 700 miles ? 480 - 500 BHP on T4 & 4 greys sounds optimistic.

Really do like the car though

Very nice looking car

thanks for comments,

im not bullshitin,

i have the injectors, chip, throttlebody, manifold, turbo, and identical engine build as my mate had which made 484bhp on the rollers in a 4x4,
mines 2wd,

im really want a mint moonstone 3dr, if i could find a decent shell i wouldnt sell.

p.s its not a standard (normal t4)

Greys will not give enough fuel for 480bhp.

Max of 440bhp maybe not even that.

As said very nice car and spec

I bet the rollers were Engine Advantages ones
My 3 door on a T4 and greys with ported head etc....made 480 on there
Most likely only 450 max imo!
