That will have had the arse ragged out of it IMO, & you would be buying into very unknown territory! :D ;)

that interior shot shows a lot of wear on the rim of the steering wheel and is that driver side seatbelt conveniently placed over seat bolster damage :-?

How come it has the brakelight in the rear spoiler (which is sagging worse than an old ladies.............) and it has a high level brakelight at the base of the rear window?

Rear bumper doesn't fit right on the off side.

No engine bay picture.

Is this a genuine GSi even though it has the MSD number?

Edit:  Dont be fooled by the 'Tuned by MSD'.... All GSi's are MSD  :y

That is not a Gsi its more likely an cdx with Sri interior and cheap Gsi body kits...Should`nt the msd logo also be on or by the ash tray inside of the car and that msd logo looks suspicously like a sticker to me....Also shouldn`t the body kit be colour coded all the way round??   :o ;D

The front end of that car doesn't belong to the arse end.

Both sides (even though poor quality pictures)..... The rear is a different star silver to that of the front.  Join has been made at the B pillar.

Side skirts dont look like genuine ones,
Spoiler looks odd
Rear skirt is fake
Car is in a state

Avoid!

If its worth mentioning, the grill should be silver, the front and rear bumpers have black bits as normal as its a prefacelift. Its a genuine GSI recaro interior, which arent cheap to come by i mite add as are the wheels.

The front bumper is missing its fogs and looks like its had a knock on the passenger side, probably why theres a dif grill n no fogs!! Really really bad wear on the steering wheel which is suspicious unless someones had one of them leather cover things on it b4 n theyve wrecked it by unpeeling it from the wheel.

Rear spoiler is irmscher or irmscher replica, although not sure if they came as standard with brake light.

Also rear valance looks like an MCR add on badly fitted lol.

Just my 2 pennies worth. :D

Just noticed that nasty, suspicious stain on the front of the seat pad,  the driver was probably a winker or worse ::) (binoculars :D) ;D

I know someone looking to get rid of their black Vectra-C GSi 3.2. Suspect he'll want more than £500 though ;D

Looks like it has had some offside damage, can tell for definate due to low res of piccies, definate damage to front damage, looks like a dent in the middle of drivers door and the possibility of a hole developing at the bottom of it (can see a smudge in 2 pictures at base of door)...

Can't help feeling that the water residue under the front is where it may have dumped its coolant too (No evidence of hose/tap in its location and appears to start just under the rad)....

Low mileage for 12 year old car, I would expect around another 50k on what they are showing for average, therefore higher price...  Something really doesn't ring true...
