Very nice car with a few choice mods, nothing silly. Good mileage and good history
Let me know details, spec etc just in case... in reality if I do go for something bigger it will be in a few months time but no harm in hearing more about yours

Dont have enough posts to pm so a breakdown:

2008 silver v50 t5 r design manual

120k on the clock with full history

All the spec: leather heated seats etc. still has the load cover in the boot. interior is in good condition no rips ( i have 2 toddlers and its surviving!)

i have done a few bits to it and was planning to get an intake and exhaust then map it

I have done on it:

Wheels and tyres
Coilovers
D088 intercooler and hard pipe kit
3" downpipe
100 cell sports cat
Panel filter

I have some FRS injectors waiting to go in and rear camber arms

Cambelt/waterpump was done 3 months ago, unfortunately didnt get the block mod as i wasnt planning to tinker too much

I've got pics on my phone/facebook if interested

Very rare beast. Good spec too. Too new and pricey for me but they are out there!
