Default 8k or 10k, decisions decisions

Looking through ebay and found this seller. I just cant make my mind up if I want the 4 door for 8k............

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1998-S-Sub...item43db208474

or 2 door for 10k

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1998-S-Sub...item4638e932cb

Cant work out if the seller is playing the "I know nothing about cars" game as he clearly states it has anti-lag, then does his best to try and explain it. Mentions nothing about it having a 5x114 conversion, or even DCCD

There are a few things that stand out on it, the spacing of the wheels for one and the paint match on the panels is another.

Must have had a lot of work done, my guess would possibly be 6 speed dccd IF its on 5x114 hubs as the wheels suggest and must be running alcatek if it has antilag.

No mention of turbo/mods/power, all seems a bit vague.

5 speed box, with what looks like spacers to me so I'd doubt very much it's had the hubs converted to 114.3.

Or, in reference to the UK 4 door, say: "Don't miss this amazing car and make your friends jealous."
