Strong money for an utterly poverty spec car that looks like it’s been used as a bumper car. Low mileage one careless owner heaps of problems. Run away.

Just because a car is low mileage doesn't mean that it is always good. I usually buy low mileage cars but always check for good service history and I tend to let the current owner take me for a drive to see how they drive (not always possible as the last owner of my car had sadly passed away but I knew him personally).

I bought a low miles 214SEI which had been driven between 5-700 miles per year. It was main dealer serviced every year! However, a low mileage 25 that I bought ended up being a nightmare due to previous driver abuse (overheated clutch) and lack of regular servicing.

Do your checks!

MOT History looks good to me - seems a good buy for someone
