Default Too good to be true?

Was looking at this and may consider buying it, very good price too.
But do you guys reckon its too good to be true and may have something wrong because for this sort of price I cannot find any other blob stis let alone one with ppp.

You never know, try and get an independent specialist to check it over first and see what they say

i know it's quite a bit more, but there was a 2005 uk sti PPP on ebay the other day, 9k miles and was up for £13k with a make me an offer option, so possibly you'd get it for £12.5k. silly cheap.

and before someone says it, yes i'm an 05 owner that probably thinks their car is worth more than it actually is

If you ask me, I think they are being optimistic.

It says HPI checked....

Doesn't mean it's "clean", just checked !

I'm only being suspicious, not having a go at the company.

If you don't ask, they are NOT obliged to tell you anything !

seen quite a few at that price with the higher mileage. at the end of the day its a buyers market at the moment for the scoobs with people worrying about fuel, tax, house bills etc etc so there very hard to shift so most now are dropping in price fast. just do the usual checks on the car etc and if all sound your laughing
