In the UK there called registration plate's or number plates, a licence plate is what the USA have, there's no such thing as a licence plate in the UK, they do not exist.

Just looked, had it's first MOT here on 1st February 2017 but failed then passed a day later, mileage says 4048kms when MOT'd so who knows, would be very surpised if anyone buys it even near that price though!

Very easy to find out if it's clocked, given how recently it's been imported...

Think you could tell if it had done that amount of miles. Not worth that much though.

The car went through kings Lynn car auction a couple of months ago. Very nice original car, had some paint fade but that's to be expected given the age and colour.
It didn't sell, I forget what it was bid too but it wasn't alot.
It then appeared on eBay a couple of days later and been there ever since.

Need to pay BIMTA or Car VX. There's nothing available free that I know of, so unless you want to pay £20ish it's only really for someone that's wants to buy.

JDM WRX doubt it made it beyond £5k at auction, if it was a WRX RA or STI RA might get as far as £7k / £10k respectively but certainly not £15k.
