Hello!

A friend of mine wants to buy a Seven. He his a biker and also has experience on track days.

Can anyone here advise on these two cars?

Personally, I'd go for the cheaper model - it's got Aero's!!!

Good point

I advised it for being cheaper and the same performance.

But are these cars known?

Personally I would buy neither. They both have very highly tuned K series engines that could go pop at any moment and cost a packet to fix.

Look for something with either a 2 litre Zetec or Duratec in it, preferably under 200 bhp, those engines are bullet proof and the cars are still very quick. Sevens with lots of power are not necessarily better, sometimes there is too much power.

Totally agree!!

There is one on pistonheads for £12k , loads of car ( in red) leaving lots to spend IF you need to.

He"ll love it!!!!
It's all a load of bollocks
