Default Does anyone know this beauty?

Looks like a very good example, especially if the seller's reasons for selling are true!https://www.autotrader.co.uk/classif...levance&page=1
PS Shame it's MoT expired in November!

If you ignore the soft sell it does look very nice for a 5 owner car although maybe a tad overpriced. Says MOT'd to June 2020

If it is ‘overpriced’, go and find another one in the same condition for the same price.

According to DVLA check MoT site, ran out of MoT on 11/11/19. So someone is telling porkies! It doesn't take long for MoT to show on this site; certainly not since June! Unless he's got a forged certificate. I now think it's a bargepole job.
This one is probably a better buy, even if a higher price.
https://www.autotrader.co.uk/classif...ice-asc&page=2 Nice low mileage 1.8T. I suspect these will prove to be the one to own as a classic - most reliable of the K series, easier to service than a KV6, better fuel economy, and ample power, and a British engine!

Bit of a harsh response bl52.. Not talking it down, just an observation - and I'm not looking anyway.
