Last time I saw a bloke selling a R33 GTST that he claims is his grans or something...looked right dodgy!

I was looking at buying this back in Feb. The importer never got back to me with a proper spec list though, even after a few emails and phone calls :roll:

Sold for £3495 IIRC

just spoke to the actual owner of this car and the mileage is not 30000km's
its over 100000km's but has had different clocks fitted, its not a trd mr2, think it's really bad as whoever buys it is thinking there getting a car with 30000km's on it :shock:

I was watching it for this reason, con-artist if you ask me. Draws people in and then less than 24hrs before it ends doubles the milage.

to be fair the owner has updated the mileage, could be a genuine mistake 8-[

i've spoke to the owner of it, his 'dad' and the mileage isn't even exactly known, the clocks have been fitted and first time it was listed they were trying to get away with 20 od thou km's!!! then i said to them the mileage after speaking to his 'dad' and he adjusted it in the spec part but has still left the picture of the clocks up showing the 20k mileage, it isn't a high spec car, its just like you say, dump valve, induction and a bodykit...with a wing on the back, yet people are obviously looking at the pic of the mileage and bidding it up, it's just totally misleading, plus the owners are useless at answering questions, they beat around the bush
