and...... what do we think is a fair price on this? seems a bit toppy for a car thats done that many miles?

The gap in the service history is a bit recent

The 'departures from specification' list fails to include the nasty 80s mirrors

Is the description of 'unrestored steel body' compatible with 'sill replacement' ?

A lower mileage car these days would probably retail in the £ 80s so why not try for seventy

Paint isn't the original colour I think
What's that over the coils? Maybe something on the dry sumpers I'm not familiar with; may be just a hand made rain guard
Spare wheel is from a Dino

All the above is just being picky, though. Looks a nice car and worth a closer look. Miles have never bothered me as I prefer cars that have been used & maintained to garage queens. 2,500 miles a year? 's nuthin. As for the sills, they were done in late 90s so very probably absolutely fine.

NB get more interest in your o/p by naming the vehicle model in the title

cheers guys, yes those mirrors are a bit ropey aren't they!

i think that i would probably happier to pay more money for a lower mileage car.....

I'm pretty sure this is the car I e-mailed Cortese Bath about but the never replied. It was around 2007 so the times would fit in. I like it and don't let the mileage put you off as there are a good few with higher miles and the engines are pretty strong.

Colour looks to be the correct Azzuro Metallizzato, the spare wheel isn't a Dino wheel it's the correct 3.5" x 18" Space Saver wheel which was optional on early cars, later cars had a deeper front well to fit a full size spare. The cover over the coils has been adapted to accomodate the Lumenition ignition system. The mirrors look to be those fitted to US models, sometimes retrofitted to Euro cars as the standard Vitaloni mirrors had a habit of vibrating.

It may be a Ferrari colour of the era, but the stickers over the paint plate tell another story to me. The mirrors are not those fitted to the US cars (they are flag style but functionally aren't much better than the Vitalonis).

Looks like the original window switches have played up in the past and so two ugly aftermarket switches have been fitted to the drivers armrest.

So is it worth a look?
