This looks interesting. Do you guys think it should be avoided though given the mileage? http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/917956.htm

This looks more interesting, although i think there must be a typo on the price....

Must be a typo there I think! Otherwise that's a bargain!

Dunno about the price, but hate the silly spoiler.

Priced about right with those miles IMO.

It's not a scam either as that trader has been discussed on here before, IIRC his son and he both contributed to the thread.

I think the scam reference was aimed at the £11k CSL!!

Seems alright price wise given the mileage of the car..

If i wasn't trying to take advantage of the fall in house prices right now i'd be off down their tomorrow to buy it..

Do you think the potential owner is in for some big bills though given the mileage on the car? or do you guys think it can take big mileages with few issues? Of particular concern might be the SMG gearbox.....?

You'd have to really check out this history and what work has been done on the car. If it's not had any gearbox work.. then some is probably due soon..
