Cambelt in 2009 25k ago
She has a 16v interior in excellent condition (standard steering wheel though), CD Player, all paperwork, service history and towbar with twin electrics.
Mechanically 100% sound with no nocks or faults, the engine is as strong as an ox (as you'd expect from low mileage) and it regularly returns over 50mpg AVERAGE and upto 60mpg on a long steady run (documented on the scotland trip last october).
It runs and drives as it should, it has never broken down since i bypassed the leaking fuel-heater when i first bought it. 110% reliable ever since.
All the consumables (including tyres) are excellent. I have looked after it!
I will of course be removing my 16v bumpers and putting the old plastic ones on and there is the dink in the drivers door/wing from last month but other than that the body is equally as good as the rest.
On the road for 6 months with no bills and would sail through another MOT (if you maintain it's current condition).
OIRO £525
