Default Potentially owner from UK

Hi,

So I am looking at joining the XFire gang and have been reading alot and was wondering these points:

Handling, is it as bad as all the reports?

Cat issues and costs, I saw that it can be around & £2000 to fix, can you by third party ones or what's the deal with getting genuine?

And is there any other things I should be looking for when I test drive?

Thanks so in advance :-)

You have been reading all the wrong material, handling is excellent, only a few cat issues, which most often just need a re-weld at a seam.
Go here for some tips, click on it and read for potential problems and how to spot some of them.

I guess when you search most of the time all the bad stuff comes up first :-)

Thanks for the info, will have a read. With the CAT as I'm in the UK can you buy aftermarket ones rather than the expensive genuine?

Thanks
