Thanks guys, i would wonder why its up for sale after 4 months of ownership...speaking to him later..but early indications he is asking little more then i can afford..

There are a couple that stand out..that are also in my view..however this one has 7 owners.. (not sold yet)

maybe this..but its a dealer he has sent me the dyno print out..think all the mods are not listed though

Dave sent you a PM...

Yup...i am looking for an 2005 DCCD UK spec in Blue - low mileage and low owners.. this one is sticking out at the moment and looking at the videos the guy has sent looks superb..

I already have a M5..Just wanted the 05 scooby before they totally disappear.. Think i forget what they are like, not having owned one for many years now.. as they are rare..the ones for sale are expensive..

Hi Sam,

I know someone that has a mint 05 import, wide track in blue. Car is absolutely spotless, cleanest I've seen! Got some very nice yet subtle mods. He wants top end for it though, asking £15k. That too much??

Checking previous mots..looks like the cars had a rough past..
I have asked some questions.. however seller said to call for the answers...have tried afew times over 3 days..no luck getting hold of him...

No mention of any repairs done to the car so have asked..as MOT shows previous issues..would think they are not there anymore...but you never know..

Hi Adam - after a UK spec..however 15k is very expensive... the ones i have linked above are ranging from 12.5k to 14k and these look like they are clean also..just need to get out to view and decide on which one

Its expensive, but it is cleaner than any UK car you will find (probably). I was looking for a UK widetrack or WR1 for a while and really struggled to find a good one with solid history. I ended up going for a non-widetrack blob in the end. Bought it in Jan this year, 39k miles, extensive history file and 3 owners. It’s heavily modified but everything is documented. I paid £14k which was a couple of grand more than I wanted to pay but I’m very happy with it and it has about £15k of parts receipts alone! A guy in my club bought a nice UK widetrack last year for £12k with around 60k on the clock and good history. The bottom end went last month. Pay your money and take your chances I guess 🤷*♂️

He is a trader...wants £14k..personally I think that is too much even if the car is immaculate..I would this the reserve is £13995..and bids close to that amount...but I dont think it will sell
