Hi all

New member, greeting all

As title, example I've found looks good, 62k, FSH, one owner who lives nearby and is going to have driven and looked after in carefully, just wanted to get some views on what to look out for and thoughts on whether Im onto a good one...

you`ll soon find out if it`s a good one or not when you see it and take it for a dive. check the history of the mot online too

Hi Andy, thanks for your reply

Took it out earlier, engine certainly sound, had a stop start warning light on which dealer assures will be resolves, thinks its a battery, front passenger window was sticking again tells me it will be sorted only other issue was rear discs had seized as I attempted test drive lift off, drove with windows open and a clanking sound at low speed which I assume is discs needed replacing again I'm assured this will be fixed.

Just wondering if experience indicates there are or maybe any obvious danger signs from the above, hoping not and dealer seems sound but this is my last chance to abort if needs be you know how it goes

[andy2019]

Thats not too good a start then with all them problems so far. If if was me i wouldn't bother with it as the chances are you may get even more problems. If the discs were sized it's been sat somewhere for a long time and not been moved

Know what you mean Andy

Thing was dealer explained most of his cars have sat for 3 months due to covid lock down he reckons most of his stock similar, seemed to figure?

I am 50-50 as the vehicle history Mot record and paperwork all looks fine

If possible, have a chat with the previous owner, they might be able to tell you of any major issues with the car.
