Buying FD2

[jian]

Hey all,

my friend's thinking of buying a FD2 and has asked me for help him out
currently he's looking at this one:

http://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/honda-civic-2007-12030872?base=1216&vertical=Car&Range=Price:Min,Max~0.5&Page=2&eapi=2&sort=default&cr=23&__N=1216%20898%201247%201252%201282%201621&silo=Stock&find=civic%20sport%7CCarAll

will be going with him to view and test drive it. he has no car knowledge whatsoever so is sort of depending on me lols
are there any common problems or anything in particular that i should look out for?
any thoughts or suggestions would be helpful and appreciated..

thanks!

1st suggestion - buy mine!! =D.

2 - that car is a tad overpriced

3 - watch for a broken engine mount. with the auto test out the paddle shifters, see if its a smooth change (tbh its not meant to be that great so dont expect too much but just make sure its not too jerky and delayed)

cant think of much else atm..

you'd rather buy ryans as its only done like 44000kms. . . . . . and its at a very reasonable price
