Hi,
Can you say a bit more about what has happened since the last dealer service in 2015? The listing suggests no servicing for 10 years? I can see from MOT history that the car was still in use for most of that time so curious about the apparent absence of any servicing for a decade?
Thanks, Ian

Hi, please can you confirm when the last major service was undertaken, including belt changes? Thanks

I suspect if the last major service was back in 2015 then the buyer should factor in a major service, including belt changes.

Hi, Thanks for the comments.

The previous owner had owned it for 10 years, keeping it garaged most of the time. They told me they were performing regular oil services themselves, specifically in 2017 (33K) and 2019 (35K), although they could not provide any receipts. From what I could gather, it had a major service at 32,073 31/10/2015, and since then, the car has covered just over 4,000 miles.

The car has a timing chain, so the new owner would only need to check the brake fluid and coolant, and check the serpentine and AC belts where appropriate. All bushes, suspension, tyres and brakes are all fine.

There is a new clear bra that will come with the car for the new owner to install, and if the car hits reserve, I'll throw in a new fitted car cover, and if not, the car will just go under it until 2026 ;0)

Cheers J.
