I am going to view a 62 reg 20i M sport this week - not a 3.0 or 28i but can be remapped if I find it lacking :evil:

2 owners 36k miles - all original in SOLID RED - good spec - 19" wheels - heated seats etc - personal plate to go with it GJZ400 - although whilst the plate looks good I would change it to my own number . reputable garage with excellent reviews :D

Anyone on here know this car ?

I don't know the car but would want to know that the following on the mot history had been rectified.Could be minor but good to use as haggling with.
Front brake disc worn, pitted or scored, but not seriously weakened (3.5.1i)
Rear brake disc worn, pitted or scored, but not seriously weakened (3.5.1i)
Windscreen has damage to an area less than a 40mm circle outside zone 'A' (8.3.1d)

Yes - discussed all this with the garage - says that their policy is to rectify all advisories ie brakes and tyres - the car has new rear tyres ( 2016 advisory ) as regards the windscreen it might just need a chip repair.

Train from Portsmouth to Lewes then dealer will meet me - bloke seems genuine - if the discs need replacing then that will cost a few quid - as a cash buyer he is prepared to consider a near offer to make a deal

Looks smart in red & also has the M-sport seats, always worth having a bit of a haggle for a better price :D

Looks good in red, if they are going to rectify the mot advisories, defiantly worth a haggle too,

I have a full set of 28i front brakes (discs, calipers, pads) that were new and then I did 5k miles in them and replaced them. Happy to listen to offers!
