found this e-mailed the seller asking the usual questions.. when the timing belt was changed, when the last service was, if its the Mivec, if it's been undersealed as its an import... etc..

is there anything specifically that i should look for with that high of a mileage??? could really use some advice here everyone...

cheers,
paddy

Its a GPX, you can see the MIVEC down by the side skirt (unless its been stickered for the sake of it - unlikely). I wouldn't be worried about the mileage, these engines can go on forever once they've been looked after. Looks very cheap, is there a catch I wonder? Well worth a look....

thats exactly what i was thinking...

so these engines are pretty bullet proof? and i was told already that the manuals are far more reliable. (plus i prefer manual anyway)

so is there any ideas on what else i could ask??
really for this price i dont want to make a massive mistake that'll cost me more than the buying price.. lol
