Please bare with me, for people, like me, who are not car experts, these following points are the considerations and questions we asked when we bought the car.
Prior to 2007 and some 2057 models, of this series of engine could have a very costly problem with the " balancing shaft sprocket ". This was remidied on later models. To check if the one you are considering is OK, look at the engine number, (part of the Vin number ) the last 6 digits should be higher than 468993. This car is 606688.

We bought this car purely for enjoyment and it has been passed down the family from my son - to me - to my granson. Everyone should have a car like this at least once. We have enjoyed every minute , it has been very little trouble. It may or may not be the best car, of its type, but it certainly is the best value for money car you will find, from a genuine source.
