Hey guys,
Just went to inspect a civic gli today, the price is reasonable but I just have one little problem. the boot looks a bit suss, looks like it has been rear ended before and repaired. Here are some pics

Could you guys please confirm if the filler looking thing is normal under the carpet of the boot. To confirm is on the end of the floor to the rear of boot all along.
Don't think thats normal, should be the same colour as the car at least shouldn't it?
Did you ask about it though? Water might've been leaking inside the boot and they may have just filled it up to stop the leaking? (Thats just a though)
that looks normal actually
wouldnt worry about it
its just seam sealer, its normal
yep i've seem them before; no harm
yup, i back that
i've also come across many EK boots like that
should be consistent from one end to the other
edit: by memory i think it was only were the spare wheel is
rev check it just 2 b sure aswelll
as with any other carQuote:

Along with every EG i've seen.
when i looked around when buying a car i came across every honda ek and eg that had that.. my mech said its realli nuffin so its harm to you and to ur money
I've checked REVS and is clear, is just that quality of job looks really dodgy to come from the honda factory lol
mate at the end of the day getting a car that old with out it having an accident is very lucky, just use common sense. if everything lines up well and drives well, then it usually is well. other than that you have done a revs check. all is good i asume? ask the owner some questions and see how you go from there. ;)
yup exactly that.. look all over the car aswell eg wear and tear, look for dents from every angle that you can.. also look closely for the panels for the colour.. so you can tell if its been resprayed or not.. good luck
