Hey All

Does anyone know this car. To be honest that add doesnt sound goods to me as its not very details as the usually enthusiast would describe.

 

Contact the seller, if id got the money i would. nice looking motor and if it isnt better in the flesh, go elsewhere. its worth a look imo

 

3000 miles done between the photos and the ad given mileage.

Driver's seat appears to have a cover on it and the view from the passenger seat includes a pair of jeans. Are they covering anything or incidental?

What creased the rear bumper? Has it been in an accident or did the owner reverse into a post? Either way, I would want to know about it and get it checked underneath for any other damage. A rear shunt, if not repaired could have damaged the frame.

Worth a look and test drive.

 

Worth a look and a drive IMO.

As comments above ask about the bumper and seats, if the seats are damaged / poor condition plenty of 05 Blobs being broken at the moment and STI seats in good nick go for around £300.

I brought an 05 STI in black last year, Front bumper had some damage to it because previous owner had caught a concrete post in the petrol station, he was honest about it and I got it repaired at local bodyshop.
Front and back bumpers both resprayed, V9 roof spoiler fitted and Machine polish for £400.

all in all the noticed issues certainly wouldn't put me off from looking at it bearing in mind colour is hard to come across, Mileage is very good for year and price is good.

 

I spoken to the guy and he said he has serviced the car himself as he is a mechanic. Crease is due to the car being reversed into a post so has a slight dent.
He asked to e-mail him for more pictures and info.

 

Would you guys buy a car if self serviced ?

 

Yes if the person selling it is knowlegeable and genuine. I know my current Scoob as been worked on by the three previous owners. I know them all, so no issues here.
