I saw this advertised in the Autotrader. It's the kind of car that appeals to me - Rare, low mileage, good condition, Finished in black etc etc £41, 750 seamed a little high for a private sale but I am sure there would be room for negotiation.
I call the owner. he brought the car from an OPC in 1999 and has covered 12,000 miles in it. Then came the sting...he has had it serviced once (recently) since he brought it. WHY I asked. "Because it only needs servicing every 12,000 miles, but I have changed the oil every year" he said. When he told me the brake has only been changed once in 7 years, it was time to hang up.
