    Hi Wibbler
    It seems a little odd when he would get 3-4k part x or even cash from someone like webuyanycar.com for little or no hassle.

    If it's real - buy it but as ever... caveat emptor!

    Worth getting an HPI check in case you wind up oweing rather more than £1600, remembering some people paid over 30k for these cars a few years ago and many on the never never.

    Oh and some other advice here

    Good luck

    HPI is on the Cards...I wouldn't buy a car at half this good a deal without an HPI check.

    Judging by what people are saying tho, in the unlikely even I don't like the car when I get it, I'll easily find a buyer on here
