Don't know if it's the way that interior photo has been taken (trick of the light) but that airbag (steering wheel) looks newer that the rest of the interior. :-/
Just gets me thinking has it been replaced?
Why?

I think thats the traffic master button next to the headlight switch :)

Looks like a nice example - Colour screen as well.

Just spotted that it has no headlight adjustment under the headlight switch which suggests Zenon headlights - but there are no washer jets in the front bumper therefore an MOT failure (from what I understand all cars with zenon's need a headlight washer system, maybe someone else can confirm?).......  maybe a replacement bumper at some point and hence the new airbag....

Very good point Darren, that is the Elite model, so comes with Xenon headlights as standard. The lack of the headlight washers, and slight colour difference between the steering wheel and airbag unit would warrant investigation. The vehicle must have been in an accident, just depends on whether that has been disclosed to the potential purchaser. Have you HPI'd it, could be a cat d?

Well Spotted there, yup, i'd said thats had a front end prang, airbag has gone off, and non elite bumper fitted (maybe outside insurance?) cause if they had gone that route, it would have been put back as an elite.

Double check the are Xenon headlines if you see it Max, and no just projectors.

well spotted....  it does indeed look like it's been front ended and cheaply bodge repaired... 


if i point out the faults....  like the bumper and what not.... and if the inner wing members look unwrinkled....  what do we reckon a fair offer would be, bearing in mid  the bumper and washer jets system has to be replaced?
