Interesting one HERE

Starting bid is £6000, and car appears to have been "tuned" by Birds. For the politically-minded, it's located in Welling, Kent, home of the British National Party.....

Hmmm....  It's been on before.  He wants £12000.  If he wants that, he'd have been far better standing within 100 yards of it to take the photos.

331 BHP?! Of course it has, sir.

For £12k I'd want a lot less miles on the clock than nearly 150k. About half in fact.

Question - why did it need a "rebuild" & a new gearbox by 100k?

If it was rebuilt at birds chances are it's had hartge parts used possibly an explanation for the extra 45 bhp. It would also explain why having the g/box rebuilt as well. Receipts and a dyno reading would benefit his sale though.
