you need to go and see it in the flesh.
i had vcar recorded cars that have been properly repaired and are good buys,however ive seen some terrible cars that have been very poorly repaired.......
you have to take each car on its merit.
i know of an evo 6 that has had 2 front chassis legs fitted-it looks mint and has been properly repaired twice and most people wouldnt be able to tell.
but ive had a cat d mgzr that was silver with all red panels fitted down o/s and only the outer part of the panels had been painted,the a post was full of filler and nothing fitted..........i allowed next to nothing for it in p/x and it went to the auctions.....
