We haven't had a bore scope done as there is nothing in its history, performance or current behaviour to suggest bore scoring. It starts cleanly, maintains a smooth warm idle, pulls strongly throughout the rev range and has no blue smoke, rhythmic tapping, hesitation, rough running or excessive oil consumption.
Whilst no responsible seller can make an absolute internal-engine guarantee without inspection, all observable indicators are consistent with a healthy, well-maintained engine.
