2 owners and only 5k on it? And why spend the money modding it that much only to sell it after such a little milage?

First owner will have been the dealership that paid for the work; it would have been a demonstrator vehicle for a Vauxhall dealership which was then sold on.

The first owner I would guess, either got it cheap and is selling to make a few £££ or wants more power.

I wouldn't be put off by two owners.

I thought the same; only one small badge on the steering wheel which is acceptable IMO

Ah that's fair then, naturally assumed two people would have only had it for a few months then p/x it like, not too bad if that is the case then, which it prob is!

Looks very nice would be tempted myself if was closer!

Nice run around

The two owner thing is nothing to worry about, my gf nearly got a brand new one from Malta with 1 owner and about 50miles!

Was being registered, and sold cheap not sure how often this is done but was an option she considered last year, was going to save about £1k!

That is mint but is it dodgy?

It has front a rear brake set-up from a VXR, so literally everything but the engine has been changed

Possibly an actual VXR with the plates changed for the pics to scam people?

The exhaust looks nothing like the standard VXR one, i thinks its genuine and has just been well done by someone/comany with a lot of money.

I supose its just down to the fact that its been done so well and most people wouldnt know the difference, whereas most M3 replicas are shoddy half jobs with standard interior etc. Most people dont point and laugh at GSi replicas that have been done well.
