It looks sick but its cheap

[Ant FR]

Oh dear, red headlights on a yellow FR, but blimey it is cheap at £7295 and low milage, i am wondering whether it has had a smash at any time.

Also has not had a service but is over a year old

So its not properly serviced and got horrid blood shot eyes.

Umm does sound like a case of accident damage in my opinion, there must be something wrong with it!

 

[spyke85]

Looks a bargain, but why the red lights and surely there is something wrong with it!

 

[redcupratdi]

the lights would look good on the red ibiza

horrid on that! look bloodshot.

 

[T. Spark]

They do look nice on a red ibiza Saves me and Mike changing out headlights over (he has yellow ones and we were gunna be bored at some point!)

As stated above, its due for its first service at 10k-12k!? erm no 10k thanks, and oh wait its on a 04 plate and it hasnt had its first service... opppps!

Maybe not then....

looks like it just woke up from a night on the town; and forgot to take its contacts out.

 

[spyke85]

Why does it also look like the building is the type you expect to be a car repair place to be in!

 

[grq]

THE CAR HAS DONE UNDER 8000 MILES

AVAILABLE AT A FRACTION OF THAT PRICE, WITH ONLY 9000MILES!

Ok so which is it 8000 or 9000 miles? Seem's a little dodgy to me...

 

[Ant FR]

heres the reply when i asked about the service not being done

The headlights were bought at the dealer but done by alan himself. The service intervals are 10,000miles not by age, you can check this with seat. I am unaware of any accident damage on the car, and it is hpi clear. I know Alan will consider offers to end the auction early. Cheers Adam

I smeels bullshit somewhere, he will consider offers below the buy it now, me thinks i smell a crashed and repaired car here

 

[Mattyh87]

Regardless of the mileage you service it each year due to the oil degrading even when its below 6000 miles. SEAT will confirm its only 10k miles as they dont want people to think there cars are unreliable, the dealers would confirm otherwise as they want your money!

 

[Fez boy]

I have asked a few questions

 

[mhill]

I was thinking about putting the twin red lights on my car (black magic). Just think it would tie in with the rear red lights. This was just a idea though and i do think it looks a bit strange with the yellow coloured car.

And why is the FR 150BHP?

 

[spyke85]

The FR is 150 bhp :s

 

[muddyboots]

What happened to the annual inspection service then ?
Also, seems suspicious how the front is parked in the dark, if you're selling a car you want to take the best photos you can.

On the other hand, could be genuine, and the owner has poor taste in headlights and poor photography skills. In which case there's a potential bargain. I'm sure you could find someone with a red car willing to swap lights, and no real harm done just missing the annual inspection by a few months, it hasn't gone beyond it's scheduled oil change. No harm in going to have a look !

 

[Mattyh87]

Do a check on it, see if its been involved in an accident!

Whats that tag on the key all about? Perhaps a garage has had to put that on maybe?

 

[Johnsey]

The FR is 150 bhp :s

Ah, I thought the Ibiza FR was 130 same as the Sport and the Leon was 150 - ho hum

 

[gazjones]

And why is the FR 150BHP?

thats standard but not many people on her have a standard one lol!!!!
mine has only done 9k on a 54 plate headlights could be someones sick taste but servicing is done 10k or 12 months which ever comes frist mine is nearly due a 20k service as its had 10k at 1600 as it was a year old. seems strtange on that part!!

Yep, the diesel FR is 130bhp but the car advertised is an FR 1.8t
