Default What do you think of this?

Just spoken to a dealer who will offer this car plus cash for my Leon Cupra. Is it worth the £5994 he has it up for, the mileage is 77k by the way.

Auto Trader Dealer Pages - CARSHOP

Many thanks in advance

Looks clean. Has it got the Prodrive Performance Pack on it? I thought all WRX's came with a twin exhaust?

No mention of mileage and green does not work on a newage. Might be the WR Sport back box?

Apart from that, totally un-molested.

It's green and highish mileage, will be very hard to shift. If you like it make sure you get it for rock bottom money.

The mileage isnt high for a New Age car and whilst the colour isnt brilliant, its certainly stealthy..... If you can get it for £5k then youre on a winner. If it turns out to have PPP then I wouldnt haggle too hard (as you always risk having to leave it).

What do you call rock bottom money? I am looking at the car plus £750 for my Leon Cupra 2002 '52' with 45k on the clock. Sound fair?

How would I know if it had PPP, would there be a certificate?

I'd say no more than £5k for it.

The PPP should have a cert.

Ive decided against the car at the price stated. I have emailed the dealer to tell him its too high a price for a high mileage green example. Have to keep looking! (and sell my car in the meantime)

You're not wrong there it is a nightmare to keep clean but i have to say when it is clean white has to be the best colour for an Impreza
