Wow considering viewing it.

But at that price , thought it'll be worth more with milage that low + mods?

Wonder what other peoples views are

low miles and value, don't seem to add up. Certainly worth viewing to attain bargain buying satisfaction

I emailed him.

He stated 2 owners + himself

Perfect condition cosmetically + mechanically (only issue is service light is on and light adjuster is broken inside which he is fixing tommorrow)

And said he wouldn't be selling If he didn't have another car.

But it's so cheap ...isit too good to be true? I'd say a realistic value has got to be nearer £2k+ with those miles / mods + supposide condition.

He said got loads of history / Mots for proof of milage

Anything I should look out for if I go to view it?

As if it is what he says it is. It'll be garaged and kept a concourse example (obviously with the mods).

If that's as good as it looks and I was after a modded t4 I'd snap it up

Go view, try it and buy it. Nothing worse then missing out, though listen to your head not your heart when viewing. Nothing special to look out for, just as you would buy any used car.

Yep that's I'm debating . As it would be kept in a garage + just used every now and again to keep it a mint low milage example.
But it could be an absolute wreck/clocked in the flesh.

But I guess will never know unless seeing it in the flesh.

Not that far from me, if I had the money I'd have it as I really like the phase one's but will have to stick with mine. Not sure if it is worth the full asking price but is a stunning car, like that there is no fake wood effect in that one like these is in mine and 98% of other phase 1 models.

You should view it bud and give us your verdict , as it's 4hrs from me and really debating it.

I thought it would be worth nearer £2k+ due to milage + mods - but I guess they don't hold their value.

I asked if it ever had respray etc - he stated no, but had resprayed trim outside but with no laquer (which he said he was told to do)
So I'm guessing the white had no clear as standard?
