£10k + mint low miles, or heavy mod list

condition varies massively, they all look the same in photos, so you need to see them in the flesh. some are neglected, some are immaculate.

usual rust spots:

front and rear arches
front wings where they meet bumper
under wing mirrors and on tailgate
sills and lower parts of rear arches

look for

signs of botched wiring
service history important
should come with 2 sets of keys, leather RS wallet, RS mats (unless seller is being tight)

they are great cars buty most are 10 years old now so do show age. interior wears well but alcantara can bobble and rip

theres so many out there now though you should be able to find a good one
So how is a low milage rs cheaper than a high milage rs
