Not even that tatty with a lick of paint on the bumpers - low mileage, looks pretty solid - 300 quid. Not bad I don't think.

Paint the bumpers and yes, I guess (from this distance) it looks OK.

Low mileage, but the bumper condition seems at odds with that mileage, so i'd be wary unless the paperwork backs up that mileage. It might still be a nice car, but as usual the pictures are rubbish, so it might be a bargain in the flesh?

Not sure bumper condition means it can't be low mileage. Given that the sort of driver's who cover low mileage aren't always the best drivers...

That is very tempting.

Very good value I think, wouldnt cost much to get it up to scratch, and again lovely mileage and a great drive.

Or, just a car fundamentally with nine months MOT for £300. Devon though so bit of a trek.

Still surprised that more expensive one on ebay hasn't sold, lots of history + been there for what, six months now.
