We could all say we have "315 bhp" but without a graph it doesn't stand for nout.

Well exactly + id want to see a very large list of mods for and to cope with the extra horses ;)

If this car is running 315 BHP then i will eat my own T5 that is producing 19psi and not close to that power....

i'm sure thats someone off here, sure i've seen that reg before

Thats a dodgy ad big style. First off he say the car has never had any problems and he would trust it anywhere. Then he says it has slipping clutch, then he says that he has taken it for a spin and there is no clutch slip just wheel spin and the previous owner must have confused the two. Hmmmmm not owned the car very long then, by the sounds of it only driven it once !

All said its not a bad motor for ya first 850 for someone for the price......

[lance]

Totally agree its not a bad deal

[Jod T5]

The point that strikes me is if the advertiser has made such wild, unsubstantiated claims about the HP of his car, what else has been forgotton...
There is a potential issue with the clutch (circa £500) so maybe it is not such a deal....
You get what you pay for...IMO...
That said, if you can get there for a test drive, you may get a gem....:shockedbi

People often believe what they are told, if he bought it from someone who told him it was 315bhp then thats what he is going to sell it as - its not really an issue is it? When you go to view the car it really wont take long to realise it isn't but even so at the money he wants its a bargain - 315bhp or not.

Stop getting your knickers in a twist

From my experience 850's are expensive to run so i personally i'd stay well away. My personal views only.
