Well you've already paid to go and return with it, so if you've the time in your life to potentially waste then go for it. Maybe he's improved it, maybe our expectations are different. It was a couple of years ago now so the current owner may have improved it. I'd agreed a straight swap with the dealer for it on my S2000. I wasn't happy though, so left. He then messaged me a few days later offering me cash to swap. I still wasn't interested.

The carbon clean would/should've solved the flatness. It was slower than my S2000 when I viewed it!! Also suspension knocked and on turning. Again, these faults may have been rectified. Exhaust was seized so sport button didn't do anything. I just felt there was a bigger story to the car than the "the seats were stolen" one!

Thanks for the info, it dose sound very suspicious. I have booked and paid for everything so I will still go and look at it, but I have got a two others that I will keep in reserve.

I’m actually very fussy and I have restored a few cars and I know how much it costs to rectify others poor workmanship. I’ve repeatedly asked him about the body work and he says it’s faultless so I’m hoping he has rectified a lot of the problems, he has stated he had the driveshafts and prop shaft changed thinking that was causing the knocking, I have asked about the sports button and the exhaust. He actually said he thinks one of the seat bolsters has a leaky valve as he thinks it go’s down. He seams plausible and honest and I have also told him I will and I have walked away. I’m just hoping it won’t be a waste of time.

Thanks again for all the info, you have certainly gave me plenty of things to have a good look at and make sure I check properly.

There is a nice low mile silver Avant in Haddington on Autotrader. 58k, original DRC has been overhauled. Nothing to do with me but it looks really nice.
