Looks like another launch car with some extras. May well have power folds but I'm intrigued by the Head rest screens. Were these ever standard or is it an after market addition? More photos needed I think.

An aftermarket addition on a launch car David. The original headrests may well have been changed; a viewing is necessary.

Also, the seller says this:

"It flew through its mot with no advisories .."

Well, it's true that there were no advisories, but it failed the test in September 2015 as follows:

Reason(s) for failure
Service brake: efficiency below requirements (3.7.B.7)
rear Brakes imbalanced across an axle Axle 2 (3.7.B.5b)
nearside Windscreen wiper does not clear the windscreen effectively (8.2.2)
offside Windscreen wiper does not clear the windscreen effectively (8.2.2)
offside Registration plate lamp not working (1.1.C.1d)
nearside front Anti-roll bar linkage ball joint dust cover excessively deteriorated so that it no longer prevents the ingress of dirt (2.4.G.2)
