    Yes, the cat-bypass can be removed and the cat can be put back in place when required

    Nice car alright and good price too. Any new stuff or are they original. (ie. brake discs, cv joints, timing belts, distributor cap + leads.)

    Cause its about now you have to start replacing things like that.

    If you still have it next december ill take it off ya. Cant afford it till then im afraid.

    Would I be right in assuming that you're selling it cos you can't get insured? :p

    New brake disks, pads, brake lines, gearbox sender, timing belt, rear droplinks, rear ARB bushes, plugs + 50 quids worth or Mobil1 synthetic in the engine. Note: most of these are upgrades, apart from the obvious service parts. The nearside track-rod end is on its way out (I have a replacament), but otherwise its sound.

    nah, thats not the problem, I'm swapping for a 2L V6 Mivec model ;)

    Nice car you're obviously a fan. Incidentally where do you get any work done on it or do you do all the servicing yourself?

    Yep, I'm big into them, just one of those things. I do most of the work myself, the only thing I don't touch is the suspension.
    I know of one mechanic in Artane who specialises in FTOs, but theres nothing out of the ordinary about working on them. I've built up a lot of contacts over the past year or so, so parts and servicing isn't really a problem
