Not sure mate it was sat at the back of the garage looking unloved and had 300 miles on the clock exact same spec as this one p plate no leather etc prob about 7-8 years ago I think the garage specialised in fords but wasn't a main dealer. The owner was a right cock.

I didnt take much notice of that.


No doubt the owner is scared to pur any miles on it and risk depreciation.
