Looks nice and tidy but it'd look extensively at what damage has been repaired and also try and get the truth as to why he's selling it so soon after taking ownership. Always wary of people selling things which 'only need' minor things at low cost doing. Why not get it done if its cheap as it will only help sell the car?

Hmmm.... might be straight but plenty of possible things to question. Its just a WRX SL, i'd want to see photos of the damage pre-repair. Some people's idea of light panel damage is different to most! And agree with the above, considering its had a full respray, why not finish it for the sake of £40. Why are they missing, was the damage to the side of the car? He might have just bolted two new doors on but cant fix the damage to the B pillar?

STI kit? lol
Has it been mapped if its got a full exhaust and dump valve?

Oh, and i'd be put off by the tracksuit & baseball cap wearing chav-tastic reflection in the last pic

Btw, when i said 'its just a WRX SL' in my last post, that sounded really negative

Nothing wrong with that, its just the way he's trying to pimp it in the advert as more than that. After all, i'm perfectly happy driving just a WRX

I would avoid. Its cheap at the current price, but unfortunately its a buyers market for these kind of cars and theres a fair amount of choice out there.
