Says it needs a little work so is worth asking what.....??? It is also a very rare pearlescent white which looks pretty good and only 30k miles......get yourself a winter bargain and buy it.

At that price I might even buy it myself, do the bits and sell it on.......mmmmmm...

Hmmmm...spotted that one. I wouldn't have thought of white but I think it looks lovely in those pictures. I've asked the seller what needs doing, will be interesting to find out.

Does anyone know whether it would need to be re-registered, being a Jersey plate ?

Do it.......this is probably the lotus pearlescent white and its a fantastic colour in the flesh, looks great in the pics too.

Good luck

On that last picture it looks like the door is a bit out - or are they all like that ?

Yes it will need registering on the UK mainland, but pretty straight forward process

Reg doc will show 'Previously registered/used overseas declared year of manufactere xxxx' and a date of first registration as the date you register it in the UK

Nothing to worry about though

Pretty common but easy to rectify I am told...!

Bu99er !! I was working in Jersey last Wednesday (1 hour working, eight hours between flights).

If I'd known about this one I could have had a look and passed on some feedback to any interested parties...

Good looking car for the money but my first question to the owner would be about Waxoil, seeing as the car has obviously been in a ozone rich, island setting.

Its the salt that would worry me!

Presumably plus VAT coming for CI, unless it was first reg'd in the UK.

Would the age of the car not be a factor in VAT.
