  1. Hi all,

    Just about to buy a LY R26 09 reg with 55,000 miles,

    What the pro and cons? What do I have to look out for?


    Cheers for any help

  2. Timing belt being done?
    service history
    front hubs in good order
    drive shafts ok
    steering rack ok
    tyre & brake condition/life
    standard or modded?

    Welcome along btw. Get some pics up if you do buy it mate :smile:
     
  3. Window regulators
    Clutch
     
  4. badly resprayed panels...
     
  5. It's totally standard and it's coming with a 12 month warranty and it looks gd condition,
     
  6. It may sound like half the car has been mentioned above but if it has a warranty it should cover the small faults. I'd definatley check the wear items (tyres, brake disc etc) as they won't be covered by it and review the service history to see if it's been maintained well. Injectors are also quite common, if they need replacing or cleaning may cost you up to £200, usually denoted by fluctuating Rev counter on idle.

    Just note LY is a difficult paint to work with so you have to find a good body shop if you need a repair.
