Not even gone over 100k mileage yet, surely a bargain

Selling outfit is a motor factors shop to the north east of Liverpool city centre.

nice cemetery location, too far away or i'd have been interested

That's lovely for the money. What's not to like? Very presentable.

Messaged him about a few details,

13 owners .. hmmm

That's a very quick turn round for each owner or plate change.
Excellent question to the seller Dan at least he was honest. Only 6 former owners and a plate change on my 1991 124 Coupe. 115k miles and it runs great.

Got to be a good buy if it is all together and no hidden nasties?

13 Owners....mileage under 100k......No service history.....hmm....but hey its cheap

 

[Watchcame430]

Its £1395 so hardly a financial risk? If it turned out to be a cut and shut you could sell a few bits off it, weigh it in and probably be a few quid up, especially if you were local.

Four speed, no air con. Seller states history is up to date but ha no idea whether loom or head gasket have been replaced.

That's not unusual unless the receipts have been kept though?
I just bought a Range Rover with a fully stamped book but not a receipt in sight as previous owner ran through his books which is pretty common in a lot of the cars I have bought anyway.
Shame not everyone is so careful with keeping a proper history.

Also, just a thought but is a head gasket on the service schedule anyway? I guess makes sense to be done at a certain mileage but would that not be circa 100k anyway?
