Price is good, Richies T reg went for 2k (but only had 30k)
I still wouldnt buy anything with a milega like that, depends on how long u plan to own the car and how many miles you do, eg if i was to buy that id have the mileage close to 100k in a year or so!

Yeh as long as the car has FSH and cambelt done when necessary it should be fine; my Nova had alomost 160K on when i sold it on the original unrebuilt engine and i had no problems with it and was still pushing out more than standard BHP.
