Comes with MOT it says, and judging from the pics (but we all know they can be misleading) it looks straight enough. High-ish but not unreasonable money too I'd say considering it's from a dealership and it's a desirable model.

As you say Phil, nice clean example and very low mileage too, if its comes with 12 months MOT, 3 months warranty I would say its not bad for the money, worth seeing if he would "haggle".
Lots of Motors, mostly semi broken....

Someone's been very busy with the armor-all and shiny-making stuff,under the bonnet too... a pretty enthusiastic valet and shine has taken place - so there'll be few clues to care-of-previous-ownership to be found.

I'd be inclined to ask locally about the garage if at all interested, and put on deal-making hat firmly as Tim says. New to eBay. Documents? Ways to verify miles?

Thumbs on the boot floor or lift the boot carpet, at the very least, and see if the colour code still be seen in the n/s inner wing area. Overpaint anywhere? Front door hinges... sills, C-pillar inside the door-shut etc. etc.

Gut feeling, but nothing else, is telling me this might have been sat in the original dealer for a little while before being registered on 1 Aug, but the RP number or VIN should tell all on that.

The last bit's hardly relevant as mechanical health NOW and care in that department previously should be paramount anyway.
Back on two wheels and pedal power for the moment.
