Hi,
Just joined the forum, but I’ve visited quite a few times and picked up lots of great information..
This is a request for help, as I am about to buy my first CTR. I have wanted one since the EP3 days and nearly 20 years later, I’m loving the FK8 and finally have the means to buy one!
I have found a 68 plate GT model, with 900 miles on the clock. I saw it last night, it looks good, drives well and I am very tempted. However, I am worried it has been in an accident and do not want to spend my money on something with that history. The car is at Motorpoint (I know!) and reg is WU68 VCP. Asking price is £28k.
Does anyone happen to know this vehicle and might be able to put my mind at rest.
Here is what I know:
Sold by Norton Way Honda Western Super Mare with service plan around September 2018
Change of owner 1/1/2019 – someone in Newton Abbot area (I think)
Acquired by Motorpoint late February
Damage on towing eye cover panel – it has been towed for some reason
Loose and poorly fitting plastic trim in engine bay along driver side wing
Line in lacquer where bumper meets wing on drivers side – appears to have been poorly masked off
Alarm bells are ringing about this car. Can’t understand how 2 different owners have done so few miles in such a great car.
What do you think?
I will be getting one, but I probably not this one.
Any advice for someone itching to buy?
