    Perhaps a little too cheap? I've done just over 40K and with mods (considering condition) I would be chasing high 20's at least, so for a dealer that's really cheap...wonder what the catch is!

    Looks like it has coilovers.

    That does look great! I wonder if it's been involved in any accidents

    Looks like an American numberplate on the grey one so I think they're just having a joke The car looks a bit suspicious to me. Possibly been thrashed. When looking for a new car, I was also told to stay well away from car yards in the area where it's located. The seller also has no feedback, so that makes me a little more suspicious as well.

    If it is indeed legitimate and the seller offered warranty (big seller) I'd jump on it if I was in the market.

    dont forget you can check for write offs and accident history on the revs site, which may save you lots of ongoing costs

    Sorry guys its an interstate repairable write off - checked it out - just be aware that we dont know what its been written off for, so dont judge it as dodgy until inspected, if anything use this as a point to drop some $$$ off the asking price!

    I'd definitely negotiate it down with that factor coming into play. Just keep in mind, it's been written off which means it's generally cheaper for the insurance company to pay out how much it was insured for than repair it. Given the current market value of the MPS6, in my opinion it would have to be something relatively significant such as complete new front end (bonnet, headlights, front bar etc).

    Nice work Rayd. Those rear badges are incorrectly placed, so me thinks it was involved in a rear ender some time in it's lifetime.

    But if they're offering free 3 years warranty on it (pending it's a proper bumper to bumper warranty, or at least on driveline parts) then it's still a cheap pick up imo. I wonder how much they paid for it from Auto Auction in Granville..
