996 GT2 - YH03GOB (formerly 1SAP)

Hi

I've made an offer on the above car and whilst undertaking some diligence came across a Google link to a thread about this particular car on Gassing Station, which has now been deletd. It was headed "Caveat Emptor Prospective GT2 Owners" and seemed to suggest there was a problem with the car that any prospective buyer should be aware of. The dealer that bought the car from BCA knows nothing about this (or any issue with the car) and and the HPI check is all clear. I also intend having a survey undertaken. Should I be concerned? Did any PH members out there see the topic or know anything about the car? All advice welcomed. Cheers.

Buying from a dealer that picked up the car from BCA. Aspect cars. It's listed on PH for £55k. Sounds like it is the same car that was written off - but why wouldn't that show up on the HPI check? Can't tell how badly it was damaged but from the earlier thread (thanks for linking) it doesn't sound good.

Rear panel took a knock but also the front near side had a heavy hit. The wheel was taken clean off. Presumably the car was also heavily tracked by the "wabbit" before she smashed it up on the road. Lots of references to seeing her at the ring. Guess this shouldn't concern me. Thanks to everybody for the help. Well done Gassing Station.

Now looking at the Black GT2 for sale with BHP. Registration WP51YSM. Sounds like that has also had a prang (!) but there seems little detail available on the extent / cost of repairs. Any knowledge out there on this car?
