I saw it on Ebay - price is a bit rich for what is a basic spec petrol model.

I also spotted (K576 JLG) on
AUTO-TRADER which has better/larger photo's (Where you can see the N/S rear panel damage easier) for any one interested !

Not interested but its the lowest mileage one I have seen, I wonder if its condition befits its mileage?

I have had a 17K mile G plater, and have a couple of sub 25K mile cars at the moment.
The condition is in keeping with these cars, they are low mileage, but old, so plenty of time for damage when cars are in storage, and also damage by people who don't drive them much possibly because of ill health or age.
That ding is the only real visible damage to it. The bumper corners look clean, and the upholstery looks really fresh.

I agree with MO, a bit pricey for a poverty/peasant spec car, even with two owners and such a low mileage!! Regards, Matthew T.

So did I.....Nearly...But I let you have it Robert. That was kind of me.
Well I should explain. I was going to buy the G plater you bought. Even agreed on a price. I remember the seller talking about a chap in Scotland wanting it too. But I decided, even though it was a 17K miler, to want an auto. I still have a very bruised leg

..... from all the kicking.
Never mind. Hope it is still going strong.

He told me about the scot too! It was and still is a great car! Only 40 k miles on it now. I sold it to a good friend of mine last year. I only sold it because I bought a 23 k mile 1990 2.1 turbo SD.

So who is this Scot? I thought that was you....
Glad it went to a good home though. Hope your friend is looking after it.
IF it were to come up for sale and IF I could afford it, I would love to own it just to see what I missed!
