I've personally inspected this car. Everything on it works, the paint looks more like green baby poo and frankly it's peeling in a number of places. There are small bubbles in the paint near the rear wheel arches indicating serious rust underneath (possibly a touchup spray to make it sell for more?) Original colour is some form of orange or red, couldn't see through all the cobwebs and dust in the engine bay. It runs well but comes on boost very..... lamely. I believe there is a HUGE vacuum leak as the factory boost gauge BARELY registers 3 psi.

That was from 1 hour inspection and a 10 minute drive.
