Hello all,

The above car is on pistonheads.....I'm sure there has been a discussion about this one already, but think it was a little while back.

I'm not interested in it, but can anyone tell me why it has two cones in the engine bay?

These was a discussion about this car before.... but as for the 2 cones... i have not got a clue! im sure that setup would 'bypass' the turbo....

Perhaps he's bought a new lampshade for his Mum for Mothers day ?

Ive just emailed him asking....

Will post his reply, if and when

hmm i still dont get it

220bhp standard ? news to me.....

Why, what do you think the standard BHP is, or is this a 16v, no pics for me

its got 16VT wheels on it....cant imagine someone would change 20VT wheels for those....no offence if someone on here has

It's the 16V turbo, they are probably the wheels that came with it originally

rocker cover is definitely 16v so is manifold

If it is a 16VT....it obviously has a lot less HP and is a lot slower then it's big brother

Here we go again!!!

It's a 16VT, the biggest give away being the 16VT engine under that big bonnet shaped thing! Oh, and the centre console.

Usual thing, the seller (it would seem) knows nothing about coops judging by the write up, I'd give it a miss and wait for something else as if he knows nothing about them, this is probably reflected in the care the cars had in his ownership! Yes it's had money spent on it, but something isn't quite right with it. Could be worth a look I suppose, it's a late 16VT in the best colour and if the history and servicing is as stated, all you'd have to do is get that minging bumper off and you'd have a good'n! But for gods sake don't just trust the history, the belts are like glass on the 16VT, and they are over two years old so will need doing straight away, so thats £350 to start with.

I thought the two filter thing might have been extension of the Max Power style thing about how many tailpipes can you possibly fit under a rear bumper and how big.

'How many air filters you got, mate?'

'Four, and they're too big to go under the bonnet, they're in the boot!'

'Wow, awesome!'...dude....etc.

Number plate's seen better days too.

Er, it does say "contact Stephanie Onions......

i saw a 20vt in yellow just gone through ebay (was dammaged due to bonnet coming up) it was in honley, huddersfield & it had two cone filters on it, i asked the guy who sold it but he had no idea why.....
