Thanks for advice EMD. I imagined it would have had a new HG by 144K miles. The car this car may replace blew its HG at 80K. A 2.2 (auto) with cam belt failure went for £99 last week. Seven Day Cars seems t be a trade outfit that moves PX stock around the trade. The radio HU looks not original. I'll let you kow how I get on.

Might be worth a look before a bid ;)

Although may be better for you to fit a new hg and/or replacement head to a 80K engine than to swap out/replace with a 144K engine/car.

Not an option. I did indeed change the HG on the 80K 2.2 last summer, engine is still running fine. However car was recently struck in the rear while stationary on the M32, writing it off. This auction car may replace it.

Looks pretty tidy, definitely worth a punt. 😂😂

He does say in his t&c's that it is assumed that you are a motor dealer and the contract of sale will include this. Don't really know where that leaves you.

I did see that. I presume it means no warranty is given or implied.

Going on the MOT history it doesn't sound as though it's had much TLC in it's time.
