Default What do you think ? UPDATE

Hi all, I work for a garage and we've just taken in a 2wd saph cos in that light blue colour i've been offered it for cost at just £3500. I know the car's owner has spent serious amout of money on ie, WRC head with uprated pistons, bottom end it runs a big turbo, it also has a new turbo damper on it the one that bolts to the rocker cover, it runs about 350bhp. Its done 84,000 on a F plate and 3000 miles of that have been done in the last 2 years. Anyway do you think i should break my s2 and buy this?

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP ME DESIDE.

Cheers
Gaz

Its got the same wheels as your's mate(tansey), it also has a couple of rusty bits where it looks as if the bottom of the passanger door has hit a path of kerb not to much to worry about whats the fuel like as an every day runner i live about 2 miles from work.
