Well, it was interesting.
6 Owners. 29K on clock. Had previously failed 2 MOT on consumables (breaks/bulbs). Had nice full set of continental eco tyres with lots of tread. Drove very nicely ( though change from 1st to second seemed to be a long physical distance). Found power OK, though I can see why people used to larger engines would find it underwhelming.
Interior was extremely good, no obviously signs of wear.
Now, aside from the above - I noticed upon closing the boot that it was jumping (eg. Not clean shut). Asked seller if it had possibly had a knock - shrug dunno. It was like my old car which had been shunted at a roundabout (even after pro fix - never was square).
Someone must have vandalised it with a spray paint can and whoever owned it at the time never got it off properly - both sides rear nearside passenger door and join with front door and also offside to a lesser extent. My wife did not notice it (I'll be sending her off to specsavers).
I think this one will cause an arguement here.
