Or on the other hand uncared for, requiring engine work and a money pit

Lots of faults/issues listed

1. Diagnostic code A displayed (speed sensor not activating) £50
2. Oil pressure gauge not working (permanently displays 99psi) £50
3. Rear brake pads very low £60
4. Power steering rack leaking £700
5. Front dampers have failed (MOT) £800 (may as well do them all round with gazgolds)
6. Front tyres worn on inner edges (MOT) £300
7. O/S track rod end boot split (MOT) £50
8. Boot not opening from button £20
9. Both washer pipes need replacing £20
10. Oil dipstick is missing £50 (can you even get these?)
11. O/S/F indicator lens has fallen out £20
12. Battery cover and spark plug covers missing £50 from scrappy + £100?
13. Radio does not work £50
They also suggested that the engine valve clearances could do with resetting at some point. (or rebuild? hinted at? £7,000

So my mostly conservative estimates add up to £2320 before re-build and there is bound to be other stuff.

Reserve will have to be about £10k IMO

And the mileage issue isnt exactly clarified is it? Clarified by the guy saying he doesnt understand how its happened??? Bet it makes more than 10k though

Perfect for a engine conversion ;-)

Better to spend £14k on the one Jame Agger has

They also mention a very heavy clutch....so another 800 quid.

Would easily need another 10k spending on it assuming the engine needs doing.

Mind you mine has had engine, clutch etc and its still a case that if i let my OCD take over I could spend close to £10k.
