Would You Buy A Wrx From Auction?

[drunkenmunkey]

After years of VWs - VR6s, air-cooled, gtis etc I'm after a Scooby. I've seen a 2002 wagon with 62K on the clock and am seriously thinking about buying it....but it's at an auction. My school p/t job was in an antique auction and I'm relatively 'au fait' with the whole car auction lark......but should I even consider it, or are there things that may be lurking that you might not see at quick inspection?

Much appreciated

Thanks

i wouldent think theres any more risks buying a subaru from an auction than any other car especially a wagon

Cool, thanks for the response! I'll check for the usual then; clutch bite, accident damage and smoke, clicking from actuator and hopefully I'll be posting some piccies in the not to distant future.

listen for a knocking sound when the engines running too, hopefully you`ll get to hear it from a cold start
