Re: May have have bought a 1995 rev 2 turbo but yet to view and check probs

BTW many thanks for your reply/posts guys, only just found them as i couldnt sleep.
For some reason earlier i could not find my thread/post so couldnt see there had been replies.

I'm down Newport in a hotel so maybe either my laptop or there wifi/server is a bit screwy.

Cheers
