wouldnt be put off by mileage, mines done 110k now and is still as tight as new

other than whats ben said above cant think of many more things to look for. make sure the owner gives you the leather RS wallet that the service history should be in......some owners hang on to these as they are worth alot on ebay, same with the optional mats if they are fitted

check the lips of the arches for rust as they can go here, and on the sills. some parts are unique, hard to get hold of and expensive so make sure everything works and there are no bits of trim missing

i've had mine for nearly 3 years and its been faultless, not cheap to insure for some, and only returns about 230 to a tank (about 19mpg) but they drive well after a remap and the handling is far superior to most other standard fwd cars

enjoy
