Default Help trying to find the last owner of this red s2k

So I am trying to locate the last owner of this s2k just to get some history on it, as i don't come with any.

Love to hear the reason why he won't give you the plate details?

I wouldn't be in a rush to make that journey.

If he has nothing to hide then he would give you the reg number, walk away, looks rough anyway. How much is it ? how much do you know about it ?

Looks like a salvage car, cat D or C, can't see why he won't give you details

Looks to be a northern irish reg. Probably driven by a short fella called Gerry Mccarthy in County Derry diffed and drifted out of junctions

Best steer clear

Anyone who does something as stupid as fit those lights to the front bumper must be totally clueless about cars, let alone an S2000, I wouldn't be walking away I'd be running.

yeah its on a salvage auction site atm the passenger side is buggered. apparently they cant start it and i need a new engine. was hoping to find the last owner to see if it was running when they had a brain fart and ruined it. Might give it a miss tho and wait for one which might of had a better life.
