Default What's wrong?

Hi guys
Check this out and tell me what you think there must be something wrong like a repairable write off or something?
I'm not looking at buying it, in a year or so maybe.

Car sales

From looking at the ad, the dealer selling it is Sydney car Auctions. So the $2500 would probably be the starting bid.

It's got an EA garnish and the rear bumper's damaged. I reckon it's been rear ended at some stage.

I noticed that too. Something suss!

Even so, it's a nice bit of kit and you could transfer all the nice exterior stuff if it's that shagged.

I sent them an email asking about the garnish and why the boot doesn't appear to fit properly, and why it is so cheap considering it looks like it's in good nick.

Will have to see what they say.

Is anyone close enough to smithfield to actually go and look at the car? If it's any good I'd probably buy it, but being in Brisbane kinda prevents me from looking at it in person...

Notice the differnt wheels from each side!

Edit: actually i think the 15" wheel is being used as a stockie, but on the front? blow out maybe, it says in the description it has 15" rims but the other 3 look bigger.
