That ad has been on ebay a good long time, this might even be its second time around.
As has been commented - a very ambitious price.

Say's just come in from Japan?
Perhaps that drove it, that's where the 28000 miles came from.
And added the  cost of the  petrol.  :o

All together now " High hopes, he's got high hopes...."
Can't remember the rest, but you get the idea ;D

I'd be querying the miles with the saggy looking drivers seat & the bright yellow expansion tank

Lizzie, it`s just the simple fact the Welsh (IMPE) are as tight as a drum! ;D

I only paid £750 for my P plate miggy.
ok mine is 7/8 years older but still with the way fuel prices are there is no way they will get the asking price.

Again I will drive past point and laugh at the weekend :D

Blimey Debs, you are brave!  Knowing the Welsh I would pull up my draw bridge, enhance your defences and ensure your food stocks are adequate for a long  seige! :o :o   The natives there can be very aggresive once you go across the Seven Bridges, as I found out once when one of my Bristolian managers insulted the Welsh Dragon at a meeting I was holding in Wales. :o :o  Talk about cutting the air with a knife! ;D ;D ;D ;)
