Thats a 2.5 normally aspirated engine

It even says 2.5 on the tailgate and the engine size in his listing is given as 2,435 cc which is indeed the older 2.5 engine

Perhaps someone should ask him a Q and tell him its not a T5 and that he should amend his add accordingly

Cheers

I stand corrected cheers gary

However the car in question is deffo not a T5 nor is it a 2.5 low pressure turbo version

This reminds me of that other T5 that was on fleabay the one with the 2.8 turbo 5 cylinder if i recall although some prat actually told him it was a six cylinder engine
