Miles are low for the year, i would check to see it has had its cambelt changed due to its age - the service (from memory) should include all the fluids being changed as well, it is an expensive service to have done.

Looks pricey but as i said the miles are low. Nevertheless and as Tony said, haggle!

Matty - you say expensive - what do you think would be realistic price to pay for it?

In today's market,,, £8000.
If it's mint and service history is perfect and up to date then maybe £8500. Having said that, I wouldn't pay £8500 for a 6 year old (standard) UK car regardless of mileage. Yes the mileage is low, but does that make it better than one that's done 60K with perfect service history..... NO.

If it was me, I'd hold onto my money and wait for a nice JDM to come up. Things are tough for these cars at the minute, and because of this there are some serious bargains to be had.
