All chavved up with a heavy duty tow bar I'd rather go for a mint classic with that money instead in my opinion

I wonder if he'll take a part ex.

On a serious note.... I would stay well away from that thing. Judging by the ad, the guy hasn't got a ****ing clue.

And it looks ****

All these Ebay advertised cars have "short shift" gearbox's. I've lost track of the amount of times I've read that line!

The general attitude of the advert would be enough to put me off, not to mention the pictures that were clearly taken with a baked potato.

It might sound harsh, but do you think he will consider p/x or an offer?

Don't think its an STI engine, just a hand painted inlet, there's red paint on the pipes and the front of the intercooler, not too steady with the brush

That ad is terrible

They are trying to sell a car and needed pics, where would you go? The local petrol station with it's yellow lights? The local shell station to try to convince people you always fill up with shell (95 ron I bet )

They can't even paint a manifold FFS. Not bothered about being neat and tidy or having pride in the finish. I wonder if they take as much care of the car

Only 12 service stamps in 13 years and 140k

£275 for a 45bhp increase map. sounds like someone has found a map online and flashed it on cheap

airbag light on but makes no difference. How does he know???? Has he crashed it and the airbag still deploys, or is he just guessing? The light is on because there is an issue, it doesn't just come on for the fun of it

I wouldn't touch it

WRX intercooler with STi painted on it. But that is just a minor point in a laughable attempt at selling.
