I won a silver R reg ibiza 2.0 16v GTI on ebay with 93k miles, Mot till june, short shift kit, de-cat, performance exhaust, tinted rear windows (not keen), 17's, lowered 40mm, bodykit, all old MoT's, service history, air con, body kit and a new clutch.......
Now is was going to pick it up sunday (340mile round trip!) but he has contacted me since saying he can't get the bonnet open (not really a problem, i'm sure i could sort that) and he has emailed me some more pics as i had requested some more. He mentioned rust on the rear arches but they are worse than i first thought.
The arches need some proper TLC which is putting me off a bit (not mentioned in the original listing, neither was the bonnet so i can walk away from the deal if i feel the need)
The colour, wheels and bodykit sold it for me, i'm holding out judgement on the front bumper but there is a decent gap for an intercooler which is important for my future plans. Surely there must be £750 in the car in parts alone so should i throw caution to the wind and just get the car regardless as i won it for less than that
Thanks in advance for your opinions
