I would go with the old saying....... "If it seems to be too good to be true, then it usually is!"
Too shiny, too low km's and why start at an auction price of 99c, particularly if you are looking for a deposit on a four door car????
Something just doesn't make sense with this one.......so best to keep looking.
There are a few for sale in WA, check out the "For Sale" section of this forum and go kick a some tyres and test drive a few.......there is also a nice looking blue one for sale in SA - might be worth the cost of a flight........unless someone else on the forum knows differently :-)
You would probably be better off spending the $1500 (freight from Sydney) on making some repairs on a locally bought one - remember that these cars are around 20 years old so you will need to expect to spend money on them for one reason or another.
Then, there's the issues of getting it registered here from interstate, so you need to be confident that any mods will be acceptable - mine was stock and I still had issues with tyre load ratings that has never been picked up in any other State over the car's entire life!!!
Just a few points to consider.
Hope you find a suitable car and see you on the next WA cruise :-)
