Also depends on the car, if it needs a set of tyres and anything like a clutch or discs and pads, you'll soon be heading towards the value of a lower miles car that was ready to go.
No harm in trying to haggle the price though if it is all ok and got to be one of the cheaper FRS's out there.
Depends on how long he intends to keep it and how many miles per year he expects to put on it. I bought my car from a mate who in turn had just bought it from an auction the week before. It was almost 3 years old and had about 95,000 miles on it. I have never had any problems with it and as i don't do too many miles the milage has now averaged out to a more realistic level so if i was to sell it the milage would no longer be an issue.
Since your post matts1 OP has checked tyres & discs and they are ok so they are not an issue although i would still check the rest of the service history.
Agreed it would still be worth trying to haggle for a bit more off just to make it a bit sweeter but would certainly be worth considering. If all is in order you probably won't get one this cheap for another 18 onths or so.
Got to be worth buying just to get rid of the Jap on the driveway
