That's the problem with Rotas.
If you've got Volk TE37's - You're complimented on your Grids.
Your CR Kai's - Torques.
Even my Superadvans had a copy from Rota ffs It's a bit disheartening.

It's not entirely directed at you It's a general thing. If you get Advans (I presume you mean SA's?) then you'll understand

The ones on it are the standard facelift Enkei rims, lots of people like them if they don't want to go aftermarket.

Didnt buy it, did a champaign test and it had air in the coolant meaning the seals had gone..rebuild time. Its top dolla and not quite as good as the pics show it to be.
Never mind, lost £70 on insuring it then cancelling fuck sake... Wont do that again

You connect a large funnel to the coolant filler neck when the engine is cold, then start it, let the coolant warm up and if it bubbles like champagne when warm, it can mean that the water seal is broken and gas is being forced into the system. But you always get some little bubbles due to cavitation of the water pump.
Only way to know for sure is by testing the coolant for hydrocarbons. It'll also be hard to start, spew white smoke and piss coolant out of the header tank. Things that a seller would normally be aware of and therefore not attempt to pass off as being healthy.

Lol i actually took a funnel and distilled water..
Wasnt loads just a little, got worse when revved but not as bad as vids on you tube..
Was a few things i wasnt keen on tbh:
The condition as said isnt as good as the pics
It has a turbo timer which he doesnt use do to not liking it
It has been serviced at that wgt or whatever and compresion tested but that was in sept and 2000 miles ago, that is the only time he has serviced ut in 4 years.
He hasnt changed the oil regularly if at all.
Its not a £7k rx7 and the bubbles spooked me.
