STi import in pale blue (happens to be the same colour as the UK WR1). No 18" Prodrive PFFF alloys, no Prodrive suspension, no 320ps. NOT a WR1....

So the car has never been raced BUT after 7.5K miles there is only 4mm of tread left???

I've done 11k in mine (driven hard regularly ) and I've got between 5 and 6mm on all four tyres.

Plenty of STi's in top marques from 16k although not that colour.

21k a bit pricey for a malteaser?

It looks a similar colour to my Aqua Blue Pearl import from cyprus. You can probably get a new STI one with the same spec from alliance for £21K

Nice car, but I wouldn't trust someone who is bidding with a feedback score of 0, who only joined on 17th July this year, so 3 days ago.

Has he bought the new set of Bridgestones especially to sell with it??? coz they are new and he bought them off e bay for £288, worth £600 though, not bad throwing them in.

Why not? he might have joined specifically to try and buy that car and the only place he's seen it advertised is on e-bay..

A friend of mine sold his car through ebay and listed it on a VW site and the guy who bought it registered just to bid on and buy that car.

On the other hand another mate listed a car on there and the winning bidder had 0 feedback and he had a predictable outcome he ended up selling it privately.

So, it's "UK spec" but has "a couple of bits that most of the uk models dont have"...
Sounds like he doesn't actually know what he's selling.
