Although the pictures are of low quality, this looks a bit of a bargain—reg number GP51YAG. I would appreciate your opinions please! https://www.facebook.com/marketplac...ghtspeed_banner&referralCode=messenger_banner
Opinions on this car please

None sport model but I'd have to agree with you - looks in good nick and MOT history shows no concerns.
Down as Turquoise on the MOT but obviously Pistachio - get it bought
Worth a look!
Blimey, you lot are very trusting.
A couple of things....
It seems very cheap for what it supposedly is
It had a V5 issued 2 days ago, so has either sold already, had a private plate removed, or another reason?
The MOT history only goes back to 2013. Why? Could be an imported car, or could be a CAT car.
It's also on Facebook marketplace which is FULL of scammers and dodgy individulas

Facebook Marketplace does have scammers but they are usually easy to spot. The conversation with the chap did seem a bit odd. When I tried to get a car check the company refused to do one, reasons unknown. I will give it a miss. Thank you for all your posts.
The hidden reg in photos is usually the most obvious warning sign. Hopefully something else comes up for you.
I've found the car check firms (like the insurance companies) are bit slow to update their registration databases.
As a result if the reg has only recently been changed they won't return a search.
That seems to be the case with this car and will also be the reason the V5 has only recently been issued.
Looks like the car was previously registered under H19 HRY which seems to fit if you say the seller is called Harry.
Hey guys I just recently bought this car off Harry. GP51YAG. Any questions are welcome. HPI cleared and was very happy to get this for £2400 it’s a rust free example in a very rare pistachio green.
I’m planning on doing a full respray in the same pistachio green (468).
She’s currently SORN & parked up in my garage.
Only 60k on the clock, drivers side door lock doesn’t work so will need changing. But came with CarPlay so happy enough
As for the import question, yes was imported from Ireland, apparently garaged most of her life which shows. : )
