Cheers lads this gives me some confidence, exited to go view it, that's true I just used to fill teg up and it never needed anything.
If it's been well looked aftered then go for it as the price seems fair.

Not mapped yet, but having spoken to R-Tech, as long as car has been serviced and looked after it should be fine. Im going for 2+ once lve got an intercooler.

It's had a new dv 4k ago but I'll double check anyway bud like to see things with my own eyes then I know.

Meeting him tomorrow at 4 ish can't wait this week has gone slow ! been driving a 1.4 skoda for the past 3 months after selling the teg so should feel fast compared to a 60bhp skoda, I'll still be saving for an editon 30 still though :)
