Default buyers beware

just to warn anyone that might be thinking of bidding/buying this http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1305686760...84.m1426.l2649 i drove 120 miles to go and look at this today. I spoke to the bloke on the phone who assured me the car was mint inside and out. I get there both rear arches have been bodged BADLY, the rear spoiler is full of chips, the roof is all scratched where he said he forgot that it had been in for some paint work and they had messed the roof up, the front seats look like someone has attacked the grey alcantra on both seat bases with a wire brush and after leaving it running for about 5 minutes it sounded like the flywheel was loose, it wasn't big end noise. When i told the bloke he had told me it was mint on the phone he told me that our opinions on mint must be different. So be warned this bloke is a complete pr*ck and didn't really know anything about the car so i'm thinking he is a trader and a very bad one at that

tbh I would avoid it simply because of the **** poor advert.

Seriously 4 pictures,2 exactly the same is not a good start and hardly the best description either.

Its worth 2k for the box,wheels and reg plate though IMO, Which is probably what will happen to it.
