Out of a white G40 the weekend after two white ones are stolen.
Might just be a coincidence.

Was wondering what service history was like.

Could be a coincidence.

97K miles on the engine, and from croydon. so may just be a coincidence.

I'm sure it is just a coincidence, but white wasn't the most common colour, so made me think. I'm just cynical like Dan lol.

Does look slightly dodgy but could also turn out to be 100% harmless.

The way young people buy G40 engines, realise they can't insure them and sell em on again.
