Definitely will mate
how does Sat morning sound as a potential meet? I'm thinking maybe head out to the backroads of Barnet to go for a proper run?

That would worry me a little as to how clueless the previous owner was about maintenance.
Those are things which wouldn't be present at MOT time if the car was being serviced well, especially the pads.
Hopefully it's just an anomaly though. As long as you look after it I'm sure you'll be fine.

Rear arms was probably just play in the bushes, rear brake pads is a ten minute job and the emission leak was probably just the exhaust, nothing there to worry about.
going on your recommendations and advice, I have put a deposit on it and picking it up Saturday, will let you know on sunday my experience as im picking her up from oxford ill be going to Birmingham and then Mansfield and then back to London all in the same day.

It's not bad.
I average 160 miles a day most days with 95% being motorway and you still feel fresh when coming out.
Having changed the rear shocks with Konis (fronts to follow) the vertical motion of the car is better controlled but it's not a magic carpet by any means.

Our 2011 1.2 Dynamic is theoretically fine well into the 80s. Though it's only done 7000 miles. Straight as an arrow and quieter than our 100hp at theoretical 80.
Course, the 100hp is easier on hills and will slog anywhere in 6th if you just cannot be bothered to change gear. It's also not a problem theoretically above the ton, just noisy.
