There are a few minor points;

The bonnet has a few dimples where it has been closed with a little too much effort; this was present when I purchased the car.

A few car park dints but these are very minor and only noticeable when really looking for them.

The pattern part exhaust that was previously fitted damaged the bumper on a long motorway journey. The angle and design of the tailpipe was incorrect and as a result it’s melted a small section of bottom edge of the rear bumper. I hastily removed this exhaust and replaced this with a quality system. This is an easy fix for someone with the facilities and know how on how to rectify.

It waxes up like a dream and has regularly been waxed with Collinite 845 - regular hand washing brings it up gleaming.

Overall this is a very genuine car with all the history to back it up, this regularly returns 36mpg on mixed driving and handles better than anything else I have driven. Viewing is recommended. I am based in Accrington, Lancashire (BB5).

I am willing to part ex for a Subaru Impreza bug eye. Please contact me on 07932 399531 or jdmscoobwrx (at) googlemail.com
