Looking at a white type r on car sales

Here's the carsales link

Apparently a stocker with 150000kms

Does anyone know the history of it?

TIA

Hi,

Looking at the engine bay picture, i have noticed its missing the DC2 plaque ( on the radiator support ) which states build date.

Although it would be also a good idea to do a REVS check and take a mechanic if you are considering buying it!

Goodluck!

Thanks man, something I didn't know about.

just checking though

in this pic (your talking about the lil blue plaque next to the hood latch right?)

on a 99 model, it doesnt look like it has it

on this 00 model, it looks like it has it

could it change between years and this could be a late 99 early 00 which doesn't have it?

Hmm could possibly be the 1999 model does not come out with one, although i can see the two rivet holes on the 99 where the plate mounts.

Might have to ask someone with a 99 model.

Is this guy located in Fairfield.

He also has no recaros, checkerplate floor mats and a dodgey gear knob?

Thanks guys, nah it wasn't Fairfield.

But not worth buying, looked like there was previous accident damage.

I can confirm that 99,00 and 01 models all have the dc2 tag there with month of build date
