wonder what it actually is/was its got a spec c roof vent and no rear wiper plus dccd clocks and switch and auto water spray switch.
but what looks like wrx seats and dodgy bodykit.
but no remote boot release and water tank in boot.
if I had to take a guess id say it is a spec c albeit chavved up with dodgy bodykit.

so I disagree I'd say it is a genuine spec c

never said I doubt its a spec C , I doubt its a genuine sale. looks a bit dodgy..still a very low price for such a car,with only light panel damage. no plates on the car either

Why? It's a cat c right off. I wouldn't pay that for it.

Nothing seems right about it and the seller knows it.

Look at the feedback count and that will tell you all you need to know. Scam

How can it be a scam when buy must collect?

Pay on collection I would say!

Could be the motorsport edition of the Spec C with some exterior and interior upgrades?

Fair one, had a chance to have a good look now I've got back in from the garage but the feedback I was looking at was for the last 12 months not the total
To be fair the car does look suspiciously cheap and I think it my just be to good to be true but if it is 100% genuine then it could be a good buy for someone.

Do you mean he was set-up...

...In that two cars of 'heavies' showed up, beat him up and stole his cash? Sorry if I'm being thick, but is that what you meant?

If so, that's shocking.

I have seen non undersealed Spec C's rusting through on the side sills. That bodykit may be covering a little surprise.
