    Does that mean that the original car was stolen and recovered and then converted ? or does it mean that the car was stolen and recoverd after the coversion ?

    Please give me as much info as you can.

    Thanks !

    Yoe could look at it this way... Must be pretty nice to be stolen twice. Or maybe just in secure...

    Fordo!

    the quick rack makes them turn in faster - less turns lock to lock. I dont know the numbers, but if you drive a left hand drive rallye in comparison you will notice the difference.

    HPI isn't all that great, they miss things, info is only as good as the person updating it.

    If it has been stolen (even once let alone twice!) don't touch it with a sterilised bargepole!

    You would be mad to pay 6000 for a similar car driven once to the shops buy a granny, let alone one that has been hooning round darlington in "gone in 60 seconds style".
    Thieves don't tend to take things easy when on the escape.
    Walk away
