Sounds like a great forum to be part of. Thanks for the warm welcome guys!

I am thinking about viewing this one, as it's in Sussex does anyone know the car and is it worth taking a look?

I don't know this car, when you get the details post them up and the specialist's on here will give you their opinions, I can see it has gauges fitted

Thanks Bolesroor

I take it the gauges are an after market thing.
What would they normally display? Oil temp and boost as a guess.

I am trying to get more info but the owner is being a bit slow to reply to the questions. I suppose it is Bank Holiday after all.

Usually gauge set up is Oil Temp, Oil Pressure and Boost ut could be anything really.

Thought it was too good to be true. The ad, and another one for the same car on Click Cars are a scam. The seller sent me to a very convincing fake ebay page to "buy now".

Luckily I realised something wasn't right and didn't go through with it. Contacted ebay who confirmed it was dodgy.

Just so this thread picks up on Google... adverts for Imprezza STi BP53RPX are a scam - be warned.

Funny that Scoobydoo (Benji) was looking at what looked like a scam seller in Sutton coalfield selling my old SEAT Leon BTCC for 4K. Using my old photo's in the advert. The car was worth 7k+ as I let it go for 6k trade price in February.
