Ok, so I've been to have a look:

Plus Points:

Suspension work has been done, springs replaced, underneath is good.
Rear Parking Sensors work
Interior is good, just needs a clean
Bodywork seems fine, no signs of rust or other issues apart from patch on roof
Drives well, autobox seems fine, suspect it may have been mapped (?)
Lovely colour, one of my favourites
Powerfolds fitted
Boot is dry
Seller seems genuine

Minus Points:

Pretty sure front bumper has been replaced and has no headlight washers now
Engine Management light on (although it did go off briefly for seller this morning but came back on - he had the forethought to record this so no reason to doubt it)
Plenum mod has been done - checked and there is evidence of standing water in plenum.
Missing inspection panel in passenger wheelarch so could have been lots of water thrown into engine bay onto wiring loom
Short MOT to resolve engine light
Some missing pixels in display when cold - did improve during test drive though.

On a separate note, I thought the spec on these included HK? Not present if it did.

It all hinges on the Engine Light really - he's happy for me to have a think today and let him know this afternoon.
