Ok so my car went into the garage this morning as it kept cutting out on me and they have told me that the air filter isnt the original one so thats what is causing the car to cut out.

Does anyone know what the original one looks like and wheres the best place to look for one?

Aparently i need the actual box and filter aswell

He is lying to you, take it to another garage. you can put the standard airbox and filter on but people run different filters all the time with no problems. What filter is it by the way?

I have no clue. im not very knowledgable with cars to be honest. all i know it is absolutely massive and it doesnt fit onto the box properly so it keeps sliding off. This bloke wouldnt lie to me. He is a friend of the families.
