sti type r coupe buying advice
 

hi,, just looking for some general advice on buying a type r coupe. I know its probably been asked a thousand times before:Whatever_
I have around £10000 to spend, can stretch a bit more for the right one, but from what i see at the moment it seems to be a buyer's market.
Running cost is not a problem, it will be a weekend car only, obviously just looking for the best car, lowest mileage i can get for my money:)

What are the pitfalls? Where is best place to buy? What kind of mileage car would i be best going for? Do they all have problems with piston rings giving engine problems around 50,000 miles? How can you tell if its been tracked or not?

Any advice appreciated:iamwithst
