Very clean no rust, bit of a scratch at the back but easily fixed. Been for a quick drive and its spot on, rides well everything as it should be. Was £750 got it for 700.

It will need a cam belt if it's not been done already at 80k so that's about £250+
Just something to think about, obviously depends on the service history.
