When you say low mileage what are you thinking of, also, what sort of budget have you got.

I was looking for around 30/40k mark which is hard to come by these days .Budget would be depending on the car really .

Thay are getting harder to find with low mileage, but then again they're 10/11 years old now.
Mines sat in the garage with less than 28K miles on it, all ready for the spring/summer, when maybe I can get out and enjoy her, or I might just sell and make someone's day.

I did see Salfords , I think it has around 5 owners . great price , just Im in America for the next few weeks so it will be gone by that time surley !

That's great a sub 30k , hats off , the problem I had with mine was that I had wr1 turrets :bang: I couldn't stop driving it . now it would be a second car though so would only be driven very rarely .

kt greens have one in with 12000 miles but wants 18k for it.

Price is about right for me.
I know there's a few about with lowish miles on, but getting harder to find, and if you do find one you're going to have to pay top dollar for it, unless of course someone's desperate to get rid.
Just curious, but what value would you put on it?

obviously not seen it or looked through paperwork etc.
but i wouldnt pay more than 13.5/14k for one.
one owner absolutely immaculate with everything about it right! would be worth 15k
just my opinion!
