Hi Matt, i only posted that by way of helping out.
The front end was a right mess, obv the bumper is being changed so that will help.
The inner arch liners had been bodged on and were hanging off.
Check both front wings as there's bubbling paint/laquer, the boot lid doesn't line up with the engine cover and one of the corners of it had some laquer peeling.
There was also some kind of laquer issue on the passenger side rear quarter round the window seal.
We did a deal over the phone for 3.5k and i went down there with cash wanting to drive it away bearing in mind it was described as mint.
In our views it was no where near mint.
I felt as though my time had been totally wasted.
Also doesn't add up why he'd want your car as if told me he'd put a deposit on something else already.
Also the reasons for sale etc and the number of owners didnt add up.
Alarm bells were ringing before i even went but i gave it the benefit of the doubt as it looked so tidy in the pics.
If you can genuinely sell your car for 4k then i think its not a good deal.
I also thought that it'd be hard to sell on.
I'd have only bought it for a seriously cheap price like 2k.
There are much better examples around i think.
All this is just my opinion of course, but 2 of us who have bought and sold a fair few cars between us thought it was a bit of a dog to be blunt.
Of course your opinion may be different and thats fine, but if you do decide to go for it then i'd certainly consider having it inspected by an mr2 specialist first.
If u want to talk more pm me.
