I reckon he just wants shut of an 18 yr old car that's taking up space that could be used for more profitable cars. If you look at what else he's selling .... clicky he's not exactly going to miss it if/when he sells it. Wink

Precisely. No dealer who is punting out 15k cars on ebay at that rate is going to mess about with a car that's only going to raise a few hundred quid anyway. It'll be straight to ebay or an auction.

It looks tidy for the age from the pictures, has evidence that the mileage might be genuine and it drives. That would be enough for me to have a punt if I was interested.
