    So I ended up buying it...

    Oh my god they are a completely different car to the D2!

    Confirmed timing belt done at 190k as wasn't sure when it was done but was advised it was already updated.

    Fingers crossed it stays happy!

    Have already purchased some 17" king rims and mickey t a/t's (used but ok) 265/70/17 should just squeeze in.

    Can't wait to take it off the black top and test it out!!

    All the best with it.
