Was it your mate who did the remap? When did he sell it?

Beam looks ok but the sense of bounce and camber lol

He bought it remapped I'm sure he did. He made the straight through himself and when he sold the wheels and went to fit the vortex alloys(non painted lol) with spacers we struggled on the one side as there was a gap between the tube of the beam and the trail arm if you get me. He sold it to the chap I bought my old hdi from which raj now owns up Bradford way lol. He was an Asian dude btw that owns a scrappy in Oldbury which is where those pics were taken lol
Ask Reckford, he's bit of a dodgy chap. Don't want to put you off buying the car though mate!
Oh and when my mate sold it, it had a sub and amp in too

He sold it not long after I bought this car I own now so about august time ish? Maybe September or July? Can't remember

Unless he changed the beam? Beens he's either sprayed the wheels or changed them. Was it bouncy? My mate who had this likes his cars low the same day he buys them, so he cuts the springs in half lol
It is nippy but from when he owned it mine is quicker, and they're both stage 1 mapped with straight through sooooo?? Anyway ill pop over sometime have a butchers if that's alright mate? Smile

The chap does own a 306 breakers so he's not short for beams lol

Alright mate good! I didn't mean to put a dampner in things but I didn't want you buying it and then coming across these problems later on because he never told you! He sold my old car to me with a f*cked wishbone!! It was that bad he fully wound in the tre so the car didn't pull so when I changed the wishbone, the front wheels were like this: V lmaooo

Did you go and have another look though? Any further thoughts on it? As said above (yes, i know im a bit late to the party! lol ), looks pretty tidy from the pics, apart from the broken bonnet.....still don't understand why people do that. Confused

Good good, according to it he had all the problems sorted and he had the wheels dipped and powdercoated so I've been told so he may have sorted it. Well if you find any problems go back to him demanding parts, I had a boost leak but thought it was turbo, went and said something to him so now I've got a turbo with mani etc and no shaft play sat in the garage doing diddly squat Tongue
