Im tempted as it looks nice and clean,also it will be my 1st turbo and space is a must for my carp gear. Is it a fair price??

I love it!

Looks a nice clean example but I would go have a look if you like it as pictures can be very deceiving. I'd say it was priced ok considering it's from a garage

A bit overpriced for me, not sure about the one of paint job though lol, for 3k you can get a well sourced wagon from a private seller with plenty of history, but each to there own mate, do some searching ask lots of questions before u dive in with excitement, it looks awesome, but underneath a nice paint job could be an engine about to let go

As stated above, have a good look and dont get too carried away. You want to be looking at as many motors as poss then you will have a better idea of if its a good one. good luck with your search

+1 for the above ,definetley overpriced as it has more than 30k more miles than my current MY00 wagon which had over 70 pages of receipts & fsh ,which i have owned for 2 yrs.
In its favour it is quite rare to find a uk turbo in white ,not quite a one off paint job,as the code is 51E iirc.
Take your time and buy a good used one imho,as the last 2 wagons i have bought the owners were 58 & 60 yrs old and both cars ran/running faultless.

This would be a far better option than the car in your link imho
