I asked about this at a track day and heard it needs some money spending on it. Deffo get it checked out by someone who knows their Radical's.

Pretty sure I saw this car advertised on RCD ealier this year for £45k.

If the engine is zero hours as 'new engine' implies along with gearbox refresh that would make it a low price @35k.

As above, get it checked out by a radical expert to be aware of imminent expenses but more importantly potentially dangerous issues
