Default S reg pre launch 75 for sale

After a lot of tooing and frooing I'm now 100% putting my 75 up for sale. It's Wedgwood blue with ash grey leather interior with embossed headrests. Has heated front seats and the all important drivers side cup holder. It's a 1.8 engine which is in great fettle. Has had a new headgasket put on it and also waterpump cambelt and tensioner. Doesn't use any fluid. The car drives fine. In the morning for about 2 minutes it's a bit lumpy (slight miss) but when that time is up drives superb. The car has crown alloys and the harmony stereo. The stations are crackly so maybe a reception issue. The boot doesn't open from inside the car but can be done with the key- of which there are 2. It's had a new carpet put in as the old one had a hol cut out. The airbag light is on. The bonnet pull has failed but the previous owner caught it in time and it has a bit of wire put through. It opens perfectly. The car cruises along nicely but when warm it gets harder to put into gears not massivly so when doing it gently but if you are being sprightly with it it will not go into gear. Was told by the previous owner it had a new clutch full system but have no proof so don't tak my word that it has been done. The car comes up well but has searches and blemishes showing as it isnt a brand new car. The drivers side window doesn't work at the moment as a cable has snapped(this isn't a switch issue). The car has been well looked after in the time I have owned it by messenger on here. The car comes with a good condition grille thanks rabbet rover. One of the spindles on the one on te car is broken at the bottom. The car has covered less than 85,000 miles and the seats are really great condition. The car has tax till the end of august and is motd till august 5th. I am putting this car up for sale with all known faults for £549 no offers. I have since found out my power steering if fine. Also the brakes need changing in te near future and they make a whiney noise when going. As said £549 no offers. I am putting this up for a couple of weeks and if no takers then il break it. I can pick anyone up from the boat. I'm not meeting anybody at the other side. I will deliver at petrol, ferry costs and a lift back to the ferry. Thanks Thomas
