HORRIBLE.
More poke than a B14, but sounds like a diesel because the big ends are shot. The CVH is legendary for wearing out its valvetrain, and I reckon my mate's been too slow with the oil and let the crank wear.

I'd try very hard to get that Mk2, it looks lovely and is potentially a steal at £200 - easily make more than that with decent pics!
