Post by: swgti on December 18, 2012, 08:31:39 am: Certainly looks ok but he's the 3rd owner in 2yrs so that may be a factor to look into.

At the end of the day he may just have a legit reason for a quick sale, redundancy etc and needs to get more that he would selling it to a dealer or webuyanycar.com

Post by: Leeds s3 on December 18, 2012, 01:57:45 pm: Doesnt seem cheap enough to be a scam, may need a quick sale and it may be scruffy but hpi's ok.

The amount of owners wouldnt bother me as it most probably was purchased as a demo and then sold = 3 owners.
