Despite some posts recommending them; Id avoid docks auctions like the plauge (and like KTC). On the whole they sell low-grade and accident grade cars from Japanese domestic auctions, cars best avoided. Buy from an importer who can show you the auction appraisal sheet; you wont go far wrong with a Grade 4 car and youll know that the mileage is genuine.

at least if you buy off Scoobynet the chances are you will get an enthusiast who has looked after it - run it on Optimax etc etc. (most of the time)
Just because you get it from a dealer does not mean you will get a good 'un
remember they only have to give you 3 months warrenty.
I bought a right lemon - loads of problems - gearbox let go today
