I hope its not bought by jperformance or Hurst, no offence to the guys at either place but it irks me when I see that. Hurst snapped up 3 I seen already and were brazen enough to advertise for a lot more alongside the original ad.

thankfully BODSKI is a stand up guy, the kind of guy you could trust if you dropped your bar of soap in the jailhouse showers etc

It is a Jdm i bought it. I sold my Evo 8 MR FQ320 early yesterday morning which is to be exported to Germany. I have been looking for a wide track for the last week but everything seemed to be miles away until i spotted it late Friday night.
They did say that they had had 4 emails/calls from the time they opened in the morning and they were starting to get wise to what it was. At that point i thought it was a Uk Sti and with 32k £8900 was a good price even for them. I tried to get them down but they was firm and i did not want to rock the boat. I have owned 2 wide tracks in the past and when i got in it and the clocks sweeped i thought winner
Condition wise it does have a few small dings (4-5) which i intend to have removed. I detailed it yesterday and it looks a thousand times better.
It was imported from new, it has all mot's to back up the mileage etc. It does have receipts for services and the previous owner must of carried some out also. It has had a Excedy anti judder clutch fitted along with a Blitz Nur spec R exhaust. Apart from that its totally standard.
Sorry if i disappointed anyone but at least we got a +1 over the traders

Good on you mate. If youre going for an Evo FQ MR, look out for rust under the spoiler, in the boot and lacquer peel on the carbon spoiler/top diffuser. I gave up looking for a good MR and eventually got my first widetrack instead
