aw man, 126k miles, must of got mixed up with another listing and thought it was 60k 
its a 99 plate so not really that high miles if you break it down

yeah, very true, still seem a pretty cheap car? looks amazing for the money
Hmm...it being a high mileage performance version its probably had more than one test pilot owner. If its been maintained should be ok if it hasn't then it'll be an oil burning basket case.
no mention of tax (bet its about to run out)

it qualifies for the scrappage scheme also (10+ years old) so no wonder its cheap, probably in too good nick to use as part of scrappage scheme hence a low price, worth a punt IMO
A car like that would need history for me to go near it for all you know its been thrashed mercilessly without any service. Especially as it has been lightly barried.
Speakers are still there aye.

no mot and needs a boat load of work for around the same price, looks as if it's a decent price then, but no history has put me off a lot, i'll just get my punto sorted today.. hopefully
Personally I wouldn't go near it. If you do then get it HPi checked.
Are you for real mate???You're thinking of buying a 150 hp car with 126 k miles and no history??????I'd bet my life that (as you english people say..)it's been used and abused!!!
