Default Nice low mileage Tourer

Nice Firefrost diesel Tourer on Autotrader with sandstone gearstick and handbrake gaiters. Looks familiar anyone off here?

When I see tyres that shiny it makes me suspicious!

I am amazed that having only covered 48k it has had 4 previous owners. Could they all really have only done 3k pa each? Generally for such a low mileage you would expect only 1 or 2 owners!

Mine had 3 previous owners an 56700 when I bought it last year.

Second owner had it 13 years and seem he left it tucked up in the garage mostly!

Very low annual mileage of 2500-3000 miles!

I wouldn’t worry about shiny tyres, they’ve probably been anointed with tyre shine and I would not want someone else's tyre choice anyway, change them right away!

That is Grandad Les's old car.....LINK, the one no body was interested in LINK

No mark up on that one at all, and I wonder what became of the premium bumper, and I don't like the mix and match seats either

Nice colour though

Some of them could have been the dealers.

Aha thought it was familiar well spotted. Looks like its been passed on in the trade as its now down here in the south. Wonder what happened to all the spares that were going with the car too?
