Ambitious indeed, mine was similar mileage when I bought it 2 years ago (now approaching 90k) and with all the service work on gearbox, belts, etc. etc. and buying new FE wheels & tyres I still paid nothing like that in total.

Though I like the colours in and out.

HaHa…I'd have to fill my car with Irn Bru (not a problem..), and change my hair colour too (a bit more of a problem..). It is rather nice though - red exteriors are very rare...

Someone will pay that - there are buyers out there who will want this rarity/low mileage.

Now that is a very nice example, however I do not think it is £9k's worth
