Looks more 'used' than the KM suggest....... And probably over priced consisdering you can almost get a BA XR8 for that money now.

Hmm, well that certainly isn't worth anywhere near that amount.

Seats and engine cover look dodgy for only 2000km old

Prob missing a 0 in the odo as listed. I could see that as being a 20000km car. Loks like it's been on a few dirt roads though judging by the grit in the engine bay.

Sorry guys having another closer look, seem's like it might have a few more k's on it.

I was just skimming through carsales last night, must of looked at a few hundred cars cause I was bored and couldn't sleep. Looking at as many car's as I can usually helps me get to sleep.

Chucked it up cause I thought it looked like a good buy in my sleepy state, oh well would be a good buy if it was 10 grand cheaper.

Cheers Scott

Had the bonnet open in the sun for a while, the german sausage, the fuse box cover and the air snorkel are all faded.
