Seems around average or maybe a little below normal price? personally id pay a few hundred more and get something else with lower miles. something seems suspect about that one. you never know though. id love a 3 door in that colour or white.

Looks as if its had replacement engines because its just been abused and ragged by whoever own it like a company car if you dont have to pay the repair bills your going to abuse it, if its done two engines, volvo engines then id say its probably had a hard life

I would say police car mate. And not a bad price, I would be worried about holes all over the dash for the light switches etc.

They are dropping in price massively, seen a red ST2 on a 07 for 7k the other week.

If its from the midlands it may well be an undercover cop car, as i have seen one the same on the m6 a few times, and also on traffic cops!

That advert is almost comically bad. I'd stay away on the basis he's talking a load of rubbish.
