Does anyone know this car? (and wanted..)
Hi
I'm after a low milage UK blobeye STI widetrack or a low miles blobeye JDM. Preferably in black but also consider blue and white as well. I've seen a couple and weighing up my options. Does anyone know this car? http://i724.photobucket.com/albums/w...psal8l44py.jpg Also does anyone have any experience of clives performance? They seem to have quite a few motors, ive read stories about chesire performance but not clives. I would much prefer to buy private if possible but choice is fairly limited as it is.. Would also consider a low miles mint UK STI (non widetrack) with the right mods, service history etc. I've seen a nice UK non widetrack STI that im considering, is it worth paying an extra 1 - 1.5k for widetrack? Cheers |
Nice JDM blob that, but heard from a few people on here that the garage paid £6.5k, so a bit of a p1sser when you know that you got to pay £3.5k over what you could have had it for!!:brickwall
|
6.5k?! thats cheap! doubt they would have let it go for that if it was private. Its not got a full service history and 6 owners.. Anyone know if it was someone from here or well looked after? It looks mint
|
it was on the fb selling page at 6800
the traders payed 6500 for it as I was emailing the man the next morning he messaged me saying it sold ,I asked how much he let it go for and he confirmed 6500 , he wanted a quick sale |
Right, gutted i missed that! Think the last owner spent a fair bit of cash on it as well, wonder if he was on here. Im just a bit wary of buying cars from traders when they've had 6 owners and dont have a FSH etc. Sore one paying 3.5k more than it sold for as well
|
Yep sold for £6.5k...then put straight back up for sale again at 10k
|
the cars ment to be a nice one , needs a bit of paint on the front due to stone chips
so the last owner said |
Think Cheshire and Clive's are the same mate ... would definitely advise doing your research before looking at any of their cars as there are plenty of horror stories:

Its a shame about the gay-flap on the roof, but I think even Clive got a good one with this. He dosent have many good ones, so this is a rarity, hence his price tag :)

its not Clives that own the above car its a company called AK cars in Padiham unless that's the same place?
Clives still dosent have any decent motors then:lol1: |
Ha ha, they have one... Which is why i was asking about them :)
http://i724.photobucket.com/albums/w...psztojik0w.jpg 2004 JDM, looks good but again im a bit wary of traders. Do you think the black one will be a good buy? Anyone know AK cars? or any of previous owners? There's a gap in the service history and 6 owners, apart from that seems good, front bumper could maybe do with a respray |
Could never consider it knowing what the dealer paid for it. Simples
|
The guy who just sold it is
http://instagram.com/paul555smith Followed him for a while and always seemed To love and care for it , he's sold it to concentrate on his series McRae ;-) Dave |
i would just hold on to your money something better will come up. it always does.

Tiger Tiger & Tiger Bash are 2 that I can remember. Their comments and attitude make me think that they are another from the Cheshire performance style of trader..... |
they bought my wagon , then listed it 2 days later for £1300 more.
they found a slight oil leak which i never knew about - doubt that was rectified before it went up for sale |
it dont matter what they payed
it's a 9k car all day long there dealers and they was there with the cash to get it that cheap it's only like one of us buying it and keeping it 6 months then selling as I'm sure any of us wouldn't sell it at 6500 we had bought it for stu |

I had a quick look at the Blob on the link you posted, very nice and noticed he said he used it for commuting. |
Thanks for the link big sparks, was very helpful
It is a nice blob and i agree it is a 9k car, assuming there is nothing wrong with it. I read a couple of posts from the previous owner on another forum that when driving up hill he felt a judder/vibration through the car and thought it was something to do with the DCCD? Is that normal? it was last year that was posted |
How about this instead? Low mileage and only 800 sheets, she's a thing of beauty:
