Hi guys
A question for a greater man than i.
.
.
Is there anything to look for/ worry about
/ specific questions to ask when buying a UK spec N/A rev5
(1999) thats had a rev5
(1999) Jap turbo engine, engine management, clutch and gearbox dropped into it?
I'm thinking its the best of both worlds, but could be wrong? I assume the brakes would have needed to have been upgraded ideally?
In terms of getting insurance for it, is there anywhere who you would recommend?
Full reg is T709WWT, if you want to do any history checks.Interestingly, that reg doesn't show up on the new MOT history checking website, but the vehicle enquiry
.gov website does recognise the registration, and says the MOT ran out in 2014.

but the main reason is back to the first point.Rust rust rust.
Why buy a car thats been in the uk since birth when you can pick up a import thats been here for half or less of its life.
