Is this WRX STI too good to be true?

[Ben Lowden]

I've just spotted this on eBay and it surely should be around the £8K mark. Is it too good to be true?!

With that mileage, yes, that looks too good to be true....having said that, there is a while left to bid.

It's not an auction. I'd say it's dodgy if they are worth twice the price.

[crispyshark]

My bad, just assumed was on auction.

Defo well under market....you'd be looking at a WRX with higher mileage for that price

Zero feedback. Proceed with caution...

I spotted this last week and alarm bells rang for some reason. It seems a genuine enough ad, decent pics showing reg no etc but surely the vendor knows what the market value is.


Even Cat D's go for more than that.

Seems fishy.... I wouldn't risk it.

It was only a few years ago that that sort of price would have been normal

Just look in the classifieds, 14 plates going for over £25k, a year and a half and less that 4 grand depreciation? That's unheard of for a production car!

I'm blaming the cheap(er) petrol

[Ben Lowden]

Cheers all, a bit of an odd one and the usual alarm bells were ringing for sure. I still sent him a message to enquire but I haven't had any reply anyway! Might just be a dodgy phishing ad.

It was listed for sale on here on 5th Sept 15 for £9k....
