Check with a dealer for one or someone here can check with the reg number.
You should also have a simple boost gauge as part of the RPM display (at the bottom) for the HPT.
You could also check the height of the wheel arches as you should be lower than a standard 940..

Cool

Thanks Des. It has the boost gauge (below the rev counter) so it is the high pressure turbo (I could tell that when I pressed the loud pedal! )

It sits low (I think one of the shocks is gone though).

I've checked the codes on the right of the vin plate and it has the following:

15
6913
418-12
404RJ24
25

Which seems to match the others on this extraordinarly long for sale thread. :-)

So, looks like it might be a Sports Edition after all. Either way, it's a very well specced car for a few hundred quid!

Here it is:



Cheers,

Kev

And there is more space in the boot than the vx220 in your garage.
