depends on several things, is it still standard? does it have a full service history? where has it been serviced? General condition, pictures etc. How many owners? Any dodgy history with milage or writen off?

Could be anything from 6-8.5k i suppose?

Full service histroy, standard apart from mugan wind deflectors, hasnt been written off.

Very good bodwork condition and good interior condition.

I'd say around 8k probably, I wouldn't like to pay any more for that kind of milage.

I like to go over cars and pick out the bad points and then tell the owner how much I'm going to have to spend fixing it if I buy it... then give them an insultingly low offer.

Some small things I look for;

Used cigarrett lighter
Stone chips
Noisy belts
Noisy pulleys
Seat bolster wear
Footwell matt wear
Kick plate scratches
Annoying rattles whilst driving
Excessive wind noise whilst driving (due to preished/damaged seals)

Most cars have some or all of these and so I make a big deal about them. If you're thinking about buying, do this, if you're thinking about selling, fix these.

Rossy t will be able to give an accurate figure, but I'd say £7500 would be reasonable, obviously depending on the condition.
