Just a word of warning, I purchased/paid for this car through paypal back in April for a lot less than it is advertised for now. After emailing the seller 63 times to arrange paperwork, delivery etc a date was set for the delivery of the car.
That date never arrived. Fortunately, buying a vehicle through paypay the money was returned to me within five days.
This car has been on and off car selling sites at least four times since before Christmas. I actually don't think it exists.
Before I paid up front I did an HPI check that looked all ok.
A complete time waster, I really don't know what he is up to.

I've just bought this car — for a fair bit less than the Autotrader asking price, though not as cheap as it might have been. It's OK, but needs some attention: proper Titans, PCV and seat backrest not adjusting, which is annoying. Goes well and has a full main dealer service history

Its still on autotrader though?

Exactly! Why is it still on Autotrader if someone has bought it? This car has been kicking about for ages, I also think it doesn't exist or it's a scam of some sort and for all we know 50 people have bought the same car! It's very strange indeed if you ask me.

Looks good. Will you be putting a rear spoiler on it?

Yes, indeed. I've got a green T5 which needs to go — rather worryingly it pulls just as strong as the yellow one and everything works on it — but, I'll get the spoiler off it before it goes to put on the yellow one. Think they look a bit better balanced visually with the spoiler

There is very little in it between a T5 and a T5-R/850R in terms of power. It's only like 10bhp.

The main difference is the trim level with every box ticked on the equipment list for the T5-R, and some unique trim like front bumper, rear spoiler, Titans, seats, etc.
