Is this a good price for a 2003 MINI Cooper with just 11,000 miles?

I have seen a MINI Cooper 1.6 2003 with only 11,000 miles and one owner. The asking price is £6495 - is this a fair price for this car in immaculate condition with 12 months MoT?

The average mileage for a car this age would be between 60,000 and 70,000 miles, so to find one with such low mileage is impressive. A car with average miles from a franchised dealer would cost around £5320 according to the price guides, so adding on around £1000 sounds about right if it has such low mileage. The 12 months MoT is useful too. Even though it has only done 11,000 miles, still check the service history as it should be serviced every 12 months, regardless of how many miles it has covered.
