Default Urgent Help needed.

Im going to look at 1998 sti import on Sat,locate on piston heads.
The car looks in great shape,and has a full service history,also had a Engine rebuild 6000 miles ago.

Now done a HPI on the car,and evrything was Clear,but listed as having 7 previous Owners. Has kinda put a dampner on it.

was wondering if that is a major Problem??

advise would be great appreciated.

Oh car has 68,000.

Cheers

How long has the car been in this country??
Does seem alot though, but some of those owners could be garages.

If you post up a link for pistonheads then people might be able to give a better opinion

ile put money on at least 2 of them being garages. one will be directly after import, mine has had 3 but im the only person who has used the car, its bizarre. go & look at the car and judge it by its merits, id not ignore a car based on how many owners its had. atb james
