I remember reading about the car on DaiHard Forum when it was first imported into the UK , In about 2005.

The first thing the car needed was a complete brand new turbo at a cost of £1200 from Turbo Technics. The oil looked like it had never once been changed and the turbo oil feed had blocked making the turbo sieze.

Appartently it's not uncommon to see poorly maintained Jap imports. With their cars not being wanted after a few years old, some owners can be slack with servicing.

Having said that. I saw the car and had a good look at it in 2009, and the owner Barnaby who had it since it was imported poured money into the car to make it stunning condition.

If it had come along a few months ago at 2k before I bought my YRV then i would have certainly bought it.
