Just a warning to anyone looking to buy a 20v turbo from the Crawley area.

There is a black one currently advertised (not on PH) that sounds too good to be true....it is. Looked at it over the weekend and NO oil was showing anywhere on the dipstick.

Its on Autotrader.

The seller saw me picking my jaw up off the floor after I'd checked the oil and asked if everything was alright.

I wish I had not said anyhting because the next person to see it is probably going to think it looks a nice car.

Its advertised as being 'maintained regardless of cost'frown

The worrying thing is the ad reads like they know what they are talking about.

Unless it really is swilling oil I'd guess its been running below the minimum for 1,000 miles +.
