Do you know this car; P929PLA

Hi folks,

Still on the look out for a 450 post 98 Chim... I've started to adjust my expectations (as normal in used car buying!) and looking at different colours and ages.

This one came across my path on the various sites, so wondered if it was known within these circles? Two owners, now with a dealer/owner that is looking to move it on.

Many thanks!

Looks good from a distance!, but plenty of money for the year and mileage.

Perhaps a private purchase might be more advantageous.

Have to agree with this. Top money for a car still on its original outriggers.

Dash is all cracked, carpets faded both easy fix but should be spot on for this money.

No pics of the chassis anywhere ?

Best still, my personal pet hate........the chassis has been waxoyled on a regular basis...................salesman speak...................... what they really mean

is.......... any visible signs of rust or flaking powdercoat have been hid beneath layers of shte

Any car newer than 1996 will either already have had new outriggers, or will be shortly due some.
At £1500-£2000, I would probably be looking for a car where they had already been done.
The older cars had better painted chassis work, so don't necessarily rot there as quickly.
