    I’d like to know what the outstanding recall is before I bid on it and why it wasn’t dealt with when it was last serviced

    The recall is easily sorted; any other information may be a bit harder to find. The reason why I don't like auctions is the risk factor. I like a bargain but risk averse.
    The history shows it has been hardly driven; therefore I would expect it to have been in immaculate condition. But it's not, which is probably why it's being auctioned. Also a very strange car for the Bangers & Cash brigade to sell.
    All good things come to those who wait. I'm really impatient which explains a lot.

    F31 320i. Good car.
    E89 20i Now fully dried
    Z3 'free litre'. Project and a half. Complicated!
    Mazda3 sold
    Tatty old R56 Mini Cooper. Money pit!

    At that mileage it could easily be none! I could probably find out if I was serious.

    The four wheel drive systems on these type of cars are incredible. Electronically controlled centre diffs, the lot. As I said earlier I had an equivalent Evo 20 years ago. It was the only car I've driven that made me feel I could drive well.
    Now you mention it a mate of mine had a 2006 impreza wrx sti and that had some adjustable centre diff thing. He them had a forester sti Litchfield which was an animal of a thing lol
