More likely to be a stolen and recovered job.

Thats actually a bit dear for that car if you look, its got no tax or test, its boy racerd so its been thrashed and its high mileage.

Its actually worth about £300 max.

Kev,

I'm thinking of paying about £1000 max for one of em, whats the average for a decent not fooked one?

Cheers

You should be able to get one with a years mot for under £800.

The other thing you could do is buy a Citroen AX instead, its the same car but allot cheaper.

Just noticed the locks and lack of gearbox, that takes the value down to about £50.

Like kev says that car is no where near worth that. 120,000 is alot of miles for a tiny car like that.

I paid £400 for mine with 80,000 on the clock and 5 months mot. All mine needed was new brake pads and a battery. Admittedly its kind of falling apart at the minute, it doesn't help that I occasionaly take it off road and basically rev the knackers off it everywhere.
