Just found this and was surprised at the price considering the mileage.

Took a look at the pics and saw the seats werent right. Went onto RAC and checked the reg to find it listed as just a 20v turbo!! Do we have a faker here??

Sorry if its been posted before, did have a quick scan to check but couldnt find anything.

Buyers beware!!

Yeh its an LE the RAC site is utter crap like i keep saying most V5's dont say plus or LE alot dont even say turbo.

Funny its got no LE recaro's, but they gone walkies years ago and the owner would never spend the dosh for some replacements.

I remember it well.

It was all on the old forum.

The owner will no doubt appear.

Oh and check the LE register as to where the number belongs if you so wish.

So why did he get rid of the red/black seats and door cards ? Seems a strange way to de-value an LE \:\(

Jimo, the evidence here points to him lacking taste...hence. ;\)

its an LE and seems a good buy, although i wouldnt entertain an LE with its recaros, one of the main reasons i have mine \:D

You are obviously a woman Jimo, its a medical fact that women have better colour vision than us normal men.

To a normal man the LE interior looks fantastic, to a wo-man it looks garish and un tasteful..

MTFU JimO ;\)

Mate even though i tried buying the car for myself many moons ago hence remembering im not really wanting to say what was up as im sure people will scream, i carnt be bothered trying to point things out anymore, people seem happy to buy bent, repaired, dodgy and clocked cars even when told so why bother.

My old coupe got sold on ebay again recently with less miles than when i had it 4 years ago, buyer didnt care told me i havent a clue about it. So i carnt be arsed any more.

And im not interested in saying in this case. The now owner im sure got a different story to the truth but lets not start a row.

Why would you want a worthless LE, its got no seats.

LE Plus is basically trim level so in a fashion its not a LE.

Then you always have a car worth next to nothing with no seats.
