Default RA Motors Yorkshire

Hi, I'm taking the leap and buying my first Scooby.I'm after a wagon and have seen a couple. One of them is this one;

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2807457384...84.m1423.l2649


Looks great ticks all the right boxes, but only 27000 miles .Has anyone on here had dealings with RA Motors, does the mileage sound a bit iffy

The other one is this;

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2807585444...84.m1423.l2649

Really don't know which would be better any info, help and advice for a novice would be appriciated


Oh and whats the diffrence between a WRX and a standard UK turbo?

Cheers Sy

Been looking at the second one myselF for the missus, the first one looks a bit iffy to me, the interior shots certainly look like it's covered more than the stated 27000 miles, pedals, steering wheel look filthy and worn.

Both cars look good. I prefer the red one though. Steve.

I recently bought a car from there. Top guy by all accounts i was speaking to him most of the week as i was unabe to get up to see the car till Friday, he said to give him notice when i was coming up as his mrs was 2 weeks overdue. Sods law when i got up to Halifax from Reading she was in labour so i automatically freared the worst that i had a wasted journey. He came good though and he drove from the hospital to meet me and everything was in order so i bought the car. I did some googling about them and couldn't find anything bad, there was a lot of positive feedback from the MR2's owners club. Hope this helps.

If the WRX is a one owner car, its history should be easy to trace. If its genuine, it appears to be a bargain, totally unmolested and original.
