Default Looking at Buying Subaru's (Again)

Hi ages back I was thinking about buying a Subaru, now I'm single agian and insurance is cheaper I'm looking at buying one.

I've seen a 95 import WRX for sale at DB Motors in Snaith. Its got 41000 miles on and is asking £3500. Looking good so far.

BUT the other scooby's same age same mileage about are going for £6500.

Emailed him and said it was cheaper due to a couple of smaal sctrathces and a worn seat. OK can live with that.

Then did a vehicle check over mobile checkb4 u buy thing. I sent them the Reg and it tells u the history like.

It came back saying TOYOTA SUPRA VIN ***4858 3.0 Dec 06 2 owners.

So it looks dodgy.

Any help is it evan worth viewing it's only a hour and a half away.

£6500 will get you a much newer car than that

For that price you can have mine (MY00 44.5k)

I've got a budget of £5000 to spend has anyone heard of Redline Performance or MIR Motors as I might give them a call. The last thing I want to do is buy a dodgey car.

do you need to get it off a trader as you will get alot more for your money if you buy privately. might be an idea to buy off one of the members on here that way you know its been more than likely well looked after.
