Passenger near the black line, could be wrong but you must check the bulkhead gromits.

I see what your saying, will have a check on the bulkhead.
Ok someone must know something about this car as it seem to familiar but can not put my finger on it, says owned since 2006 but I am sure I have seen it for sale but can not remember exactly when or where.

Maybe the current owner had it up for sale but decided not to/could not sell it?

True.
I guess the logbook will tie up with how long the car has been owned.

I thought the Evo2 plaque was held by screws or am I wrong?
Is the interior not the standard Evo style?
Got me thinking I am missing something here.

Mileage is in km remember, so only a bit over 100k proper miles, which is no problem as long as its been well maintained.

Shame that the original door cards are missing, will be tough to replace those. Not got the correct headlights either but if these issues are the worst it has to offer you'll be doing well/lucky.
