Thanks for posting mate. Makes me feel better.

You get a feel for the car via the owner. It may have been good, but the info i was getting lead me to think it was worth missing.

He still hasn't...

He hasn't relisted it yet.
If anybody does want it, as a couple of people said they would, i'll pass on his details.

He's canceled teh transaction.
Will be back on the market if anybody wants it.

I bid on the car, with every intention of collecting it within a week.
Its only since then that what he tells me set alarm bells.

Id never bid on anything i didn't intend to buy.

You honestly thing its worth more than £3400 (or about £3600 by the time ive got it home) in parts??

There is an mot station on his road, so ive asked if i pay for them to collect it, and mot it,...

I can see what your saying.
I bid on the understanding of the car being as described. As every car ever sold on ebay has been exactly what was desrcibed, i should do him a bank transfer now.

Or,...

Ive asked again if i can arrange an mot and he could drop it there, but he cant do anytime before 15th september.
I said how could i collect if he cant be about, he said he could get somebody to...

Thanks for all the info mate, really helpful.

Ive explained all the things im concerned with to the seller, and he says he just thinks im a timewaster. Ive said im not trying to get out of buying...

Did he have a build thread?

How long ago was that?
The seller says he's had it since december and his mate owned it for 18 months before that.

Ive just sent the seller a long email being totally open and honest and telling...

Is your friend on here?

Kind of, all the fact wern't there when i bid.
If he had said it had been off the road for 17 months, i wouldn't have bid.
Finding out the last change of keeper is different to when he says he...

Deleted?

My head says no!

Im not buying it, it doesn't sound right so im going to walk away.
Ive won it on ebay tho so no doubt i'll get a payment strike.

Is it worth buying to break?

I agree with that, but i do know of a car the Greg at Protuner mapped (when he was at Weston performance). It was on a standard bottom end and made 520bhp! He adjusted it and made a safe 480-490bhp...

I won it for £3402. Thought it would go much higher than that, so wasn't expecting to win it.
I should have done all these checks first, but honestly bid last minute not expecting to win.

I'd...

I asked where he bought it from, and he said he got it from a mate.
He says he hasn't had it insured since he's owned it.

Welcome to my auction. Nissan 200sx S14A **BIG SPEC** (489 BHP)

I brought this car in December 2012 with the intentions to race this year, unexpectedly my wife is having our first baby so I now...

Just checked it and its not been taxed since april last year.

Think im going to walk away from this one.

Im getting a little worried now tho.
He says he's had it since December. Ive hpi'd it and last change of keeper was May this year.
He says it had no logbook so had to apply. In my eyes, the date...

Its down in surrey, but the owner didn't carry out the work on it, he bought it as it is.
Hoping to find a past owner to tell me as much as the can...

Cheers mate.

Im back in! Feel free to delete the second one if you can.

Ive seen many without rust on the body, its underneath most are rusty!
Prices have fallen from what i can see, but if yours is as good as you say it is, i can see you getting what your after for it.

How much would you want for it?

Aha! Mine does this.
Glad its an easy fix.
