vineygt Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 ive got 2.5k to spend on a car and insurance deposit any suggestions on what to get? an n/a starbo doesnt really appeal to me as i want something quicker, hopefully going to look at a civic vti-s tomorrow.i kinda like this: http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/sales/810967.htmbut the milage seems supsicious as i did a text check and its had 11 owners, is there any other way to check a cars history without paying?

SpeedFreak Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Nice car!I don't think there is any way of getting a genuine history without paying mate. But it is possible to only have that mileage, each owner may not of used it much. It could of been sold on every 2 months, you never know! I would email the person and ask them some info on the car, ask if its ever had a new engine or anything. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
vineygt Posted December 12, 2008 Author Share Posted December 12, 2008 another thing that concerns me with it is the name...shak... possibly short for shakeel? if so ill be staying well clear!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bildo Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Well spotted with regards to the name. Find out where he is, if he says Bradford I think that would be enough for me to avoid him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
