"Exactly what I thought!
Goint to call Wallace on monday as they were meant to of fixed it and see "what "they have to say coz it if was fixed they didnt make a good job of it "
Ive dealt with wallace for diffeent issues with my car and always found them very helpful, they know there stuff, with c20lets anyway! Find it hard to believe that who sold it you paid 500 and not one of the jobs were done, did you have receipts etc.. for the work carried out, id definately get back to the seller and explain all probs that were supposed to have been done, whens its all running right etc should be a mint car good luck sorting it anyway!

It was alot faster than my tigra but thought that was just due to it having a bigger engine and a smaller car. My pal tried to connect the supercharger and it feels alot faster now but its not properly wired up he didnt have the right stuff to do it but he will get it done this week once sorted whats wrong with the car.
But it does make the whining noise of the supercharger and has done since I got it

Done now nothing I can do.
And as it was supposed to be fixed had no reason to think it would break down on me the day after getting it
