Are are those extra spoilers & splitters removable without revealing any holes / damage?

Is there a steering wheel cover or has it been over finished?

Does it have heated seats & cruise?

Hi

Thanks for your message.

The previous owner fitted the front splitter, rear diffuser and spoiler.

The splitter and diffuser are screw mounted to the bodywork so if you were to remove them there would be drill holes to fill.

The spoiler is fitted with adhesive/3M tape so you could in theory remove it and the bodywork would be original underneath.

The steering wheel has a removable cover on it. Holds in place very firmly, I preferred this look and feel (extra girth) to the factory wheel.

Seats aren't heated.

No cruise.

Cheers

Jon

Does it have a limited slip diff (LSD)?

And is there any corrosion underneath, or anywhere? (I know the ad mentions there are no MOT advisories for corrosion, but that doesn't mean there isn't any...)

Thanks.

Hi, thanks for your message.

Yes the Icon comes with LSD:

There's no corrosion to my knowledge. Arches all really clean.

When it was up on a ramp for underseal last year the mechanic (Carl at CBS Autos) said it all looked in good shape.

Cheers

Hi

I've owned it since May last year, bought it as a 50th birthday present to myself.

Only done 1,500 miles in that time. Been to the odd meet/show but it tends to just take me to and from the gym a couple of times a week.

Deserves to be appreciated by someone with more time and less family wink
