Default lil help again lol wrx

hi went and viewed a wrx today

all was good looked nice all was well till i started it up it sounded tingy at the front , look to were the pullys ars thats were the sound was and looked like as if it was warped (ie it was spinnin but had slight movement left to right ?)

would this be a simple fix or would it be internal ??? £££££££££


was a 03 reg the shape i like and he was after £6100 with 74000 miles not much service history thou

But have you declared the mods? That one isn't standard at the claimed 260bhp it's got.

Just so you know that looks like a euro import with those seats, and for an 03 thats about a grand+ long. WR Blue not sonic, decals are not Prodrive and clearly it doesn't sound 'great'.

**** me you do pick 'em ! Platinum Autos, if ever there was a more vacuous name for a motor trader!

seats look the same as FE's stealth wagon iirc. v comfy.

as a previous post - far from standard too. ins company wouldn't pay out if mods not declared as policy would be invalid. hope you don't crash. especially not into me or my family and friends. it's just not worth the hassle for the sake of a few extra quid a year.
