I thought PITA ie Pain in the ar$e was a well used and well understood acronym?

It must be because you got it.

While i don't tend to use the FTLOG and other longer acronyms, i think that most people soon get the hang of the popular ones.

Ie FFS!

Anyway back onto the topic...lol!
I just wanted to keep it cos its in good nick, and has been well looked after.
Im not saying that if i bought a tubby it wouldnt have been as well looked after, but you know what i mean.
I like the spoiler i have on at the moment, and also now my wheels are being done up, i like them again, so its the money after buying the car id need fo fork out!

For a tubby, chats the best year to look for, and how much are you normally talking? I would want one pretty standard.

4K would probably get you a nice late rev 2 GT Turbo where as 5K+ would get you a nice rev 3.

Thanks!!

To be honest, is there a large difference spec wise between the two?
I would like abs, and all the usuals like leather trim....but apart from that...im not too fussy.
