defo go view! check the front structure as mk2 turbo conversions with ample bhp and torque can cause probs! my old one moved the o/s shock turret and damaged the inner wings (no accident damage!)

Not worth the buy it now price IMO
the conversion isn't done as well as it could be....
1. Both ECU's and the fuel pump relay are in the engine bay which is a total cop-out really, with a bit more time and effort they could have been placed inside the car away from heat and water
2. The Front panel has been butchered badly, see that big gaping hole under the bonnet, thats another sure sign of a rush job!
3. Those windows
4. can see a couple of rust spots at the base of drivers door.
its not a bad car but i personally wouldn't pay £1700 for it but im being harsh
best to go and view it and take along somebody who knows about the cars m8
put it this way, i've seen much worse
hope this helps m8

oh and whichever one you go to look at....
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE
take a trolley jack and a torch and look underneath....
you would be surprised at how much metal lots of these xr2's are missing
