Anyone know this car? I've fired off a few questions, including the wonky fitting o/s headlight, hope it's just the cheapie one installed.

Ask about any front end damage. Looks like a UK front bumper on a JDM car. :?

I'd agree.

The old headlights he's throwing in with the sale are UKDM too (2 piece) and is that overspray on the bottom left hand corner of the old left hand headlight?

Not to say any of that is necessarily a major problem though - it otherwise looks very good!

Also got a private plate on it, which you could always sell on if you like and get money back on?

He says the headlight won't fit on straight, and the knackered front o/s shock should be a cheap fix as it's just a standard Prelude shocker.
So why not fix it then?

:?

Reminds me of a Lude I saw for sale with an ABS fault, "yeah mate just a £20 sensor". Aye bollocks, if it was £20 you'd fix it

That's what I'm thinking, everything points to a prang, and the "faulty shock" is actually bent car.

Haha, I got a bargain for the opposite reason - my UKDM was a steal because a dealer had told the guy the ABS pump was knackered (paperclip trip told me it was just the expected sensor) :D
