This car caught my eye, but is 150 miles away from me. Has anybody on the forum has viewed/owned/seen this car before?

I'd be grateful to know if it's got any major issues/rust before deciding to make the trek to go and have a look myself
Thanks in advance for your help!

Thanks, Dante, I might just need to find a weekend for a bit of a road trip to take a look!

It's more common than not these days to have to invest in a tank of fuel to check over your prospective coop smile

I dont know the car, but it has been for sale for a while now. If you like it there should be room for a price drop.

According to DVLA MOT expired November 2017 and from it's last MOT the only advisory was some suspension play (after some work had to be done to get the pass). Appears to be no major comments re rust though so could be worth a look.

It's been in the Autotrader for months, i believe the garage has/had a similar one about the same mileage/price.

It has been previously worked on and sold by Solo Italia. It was for sale down my way a year ago for £3000 by the person who bought it from solo. A dealer got in quick but I asked the seller a few questions by email and it seemed a good car.

The adverts when it was on Autotrader said it was solid but required some paint to tidy a few small areas and had pics to prove but looked a good car, this is from memory.

Tom.

Thanks, all, that's really helpful! I've emailed asking about additional photos and getting the MOT done. I'm guessing it's not unreasonable to expect the car to have an MOT as a condition of sale in this situation?

You must get a new MOT as part of any deal that you do, yes.
