I'm currently looking for a used Scooby and I see a lot of adverts where they say that the car is HPi clear and/or AA or RAC inspected etc. If I go and see a car and they have these documents, how do I know that they relate to the car I'm actually looking at and that they're genuine. I mean, if a cars a ringer and the HPi check is on the genuine car, not the cut&shut I'm looking at, I could be in lumber, right?

Also, where do I look for the chassis and engine numbers on an Impreza?

thanks for all your help

chassis number is in the engine bay - above the drivers side wheel arch.

HPI check will say on it the Chassis number and Reg No. of the car.

I got a mate who works for a reputable breakdown company. Can do a total check on any Impreza u look at for around 400 quid. Peace of mind at the end of the day! Give us a shout when u need any help

Thats cheap comapred to what I paid last year to get my Sport checked out. Cost me 800 quid!! Then again it was a solid buy and had no problems except for all the birds at the bustop swooning when I give them a little tease on the accelerator. Just let us know and i'll tell my mate. He does cash in hand too!!
Hope this helps. You're mate Pops

You should have bought a P1 then Popeye - they only charge £400, as its only half a real car, see??

Only 2 doors to check, no radio code to clear, it actually WAS a 'cut'n'shove' when new!!!! so thats clear

£800 is about right for a sport
