(associated with JDM garage, so possible kept a bit better?)

i think 2 is better due to it not being as "differ" spec, and nice and different,
option 1, was fixed up by the owner.

im just worried about 1 as its a bit iffy history wise and god knows how its been abused.

Cool thread. :D

Personally i'd go for the second beased purely on looks, and the fact it probably hasn't been driven on UK roads at all. PLus the seller seems to have a better idea of what he is on about, and would be able to spot a wrong 'un quicker than the other seller. Which means he wouldn't have imported a ball o shite.
Although if he is saying that it has nothing to do with his usual importing business then that could cause alarm bells to ring.

true true, well i think JDM garage and his import buisness are different so that me be some of the confusion, as its on the import site. (sister companiy sort of idea i thought)

is option 1 superior in spec? looking at it is sounds farrrrrrrr better :(
