Your idea of low mileage would be £200,000 + P&P, however, I'm asking Si what his idea of low mileage is.

284 is for sale, about to drop the price to 9500 and advertise on Pistonheads.

57000 miles so may not be as low as you are looking for.

You can see the original advert in the for sale section.

Completely standard and in excellent mechanical condition.

Hmm, I've just had a scout through pistonheads and eBay and your not exactly spoilt for choice are you! By the looks of it there are only 8 or 10 for sale at the mo and all but two of these have over 40-45k, just the two with 31k, Bradford and Bedford, I'm from Bedford and NEVER seen another 1 on the road!

You might be better off going for a car with full known history and slightly higher mileage instead of a potentially dodgy one with low mileage. These cars need to be looked after with proper parts and good quality lubricants. If you can't ensure it's been looked after through its life then you may be looking at large repair bills.

true what john says,

aye a low mileage is good, but miles are not really of concern as long as its under the average and has been well looked after and properly serviced.

If you don't know Clark's car you should be sitting down when he tells you how much he wants.

Anyone else, I'd say go fook yourself. But Clark's is genuinely better than when it left the showroom. If you can afford it, snap his arm off. :lol:

Sticking my neck out, I reckon he'd want c.£15k for it.... But might be way out!

John - you're in the right area price wise. More than most(all?) seem to go for but I don't care as I think it's worth it.
