That guy posts on here... it's one of the show 'n' shine gang... kev might know his user name we seen this at Pod on Sunday looking cleaner than clean.... everything on it was spotless. All under the bonnet is colour coded, there should be a for sale thread on here somewhere as well.

Looks a nice car just not a fan of the 'stickered up' look.

Looks very clean and very shiney.

No idea how much he's asking but if it was my money, I'd go STI, Better brakes, gear box, intertior, suspension, engine, seats, wheels need I go on???

Plus for around a grand you'll be getting 330BHP/330lb after a exhaust/Tek3

drive before you buy - you may be a bit disapointed by the lack of power.

I'm with Danny - get an STI instead

I'd go for the Black Blob eye first then the Silver Bug Sti.

Personaly don't like the Blue one much, dont like the stickers or the wheels, engine bay looks good and it's very clean though.

I have seen this car many times and its totally mint, you will have a job finding better.
If the stickers are not your thing then they can always be removed.
I would say though that if what you realy want is an sti then it might not be for you.
It just depends on what YOU want from a car.
best of luck

PS. I did ask muddy at the pod if this car was still for sale and he said he thought the guy was now going to keep it
