Default Itchy feet,,, Looking for another classic

Evening all,,,

Been out of the game for a while but as you know the flat 4 is something that lives inside us..

Was looking at that as lookinng for an STI Type RA, fresh import but won't answer when asking about the auction sheet, also looks like wing has been replaced so guessing it's probably an R grade

To be fair, there's very few classics coming through the auctions now that won't have had some kind of damage at some point. I personally don't mind buying R grade cars as long as you know exactly what's been repaired so you can inspect it.

I definitely wouldn't be buying a fresh import without the auction sheet. Could be clocked as well as damage repaired.

Yeah I've bought R grade cars before from auction, sometimes they can be that grade for silly reasons.
The fact that as soon as I asked about the auction sheet it all went quiet was what got me, might call rather than email and see what I get

Is there a saving to be made by buying or sourcing a fresh import rather than finding one that's just arrived or been here a while?
