a mate looked at that one, said it was fucked, probably smashed in the front and the rear at some stage, have been told to stay clear of it. Better off spending a couple of thousand more now. could cost you in the long run!!

also 340bhp seems unrealistic for the mods it has, shitty engine it has

Dude it is a PIECE OF SHIT.

It was crashed hard, no insurance so didn't go on the WOVR.

Avoid like tino in a dress with rohipnol.

This car spent last Monday thrashing around the streets near my work.
I had often seen it parked around the back streets.
The guy in the lunch bar said I should take it easy and I had to explain it wasn't me.
There is a panel place near my work.

/CSB

PM me if you want area etc.

Go have a close look - panels are differing shades of blue, bootlid isn't a stock sti one and the panel gap isn't .... ideal.

Offer him $10k and use the parts?
Seriously though for it to have been in a major accident, do they not have to tell someone that before purchase? Surely they have to disclose that, pretty bad form on their behalf.

Should be a group or something where f/s cars with a bad history are listed to protect buyers.
