Thats a wee bargain for 300quid. Why did he sell it so cheap?? Mates rates??
Under the ECU is common for rusting, is yours the same or just dirty??

owned it 8 years and as geting a new car on lease, wanted money to cover taking private plate off and some beer money, nothing else. he thought january was as a bad time to sell so i took it off his hands, he never had to mess about cleaning it, fixing it up or advertising

That would sell easy too for a good amount. 1 owner car with all the history/receipts etc.
Take it its just a toy?? If your used to comfort of the BMW, you will hate using this as a daily.

Who gives a fuck if it's rotten? For £300, if it lasted you 12 months you're laughing.

beemer is comfy and gets high 40s MPG, but saxo is just a fun little nippy car, my abarth feels similar, but I don't really care if the saxo ends up in a field as the abarth is still worth 10k+ lol

BARGIN!!!
Looks alright mine went rotton under the ecu tray and rear arches in the end. if yours is clean even better.
if it comes to it you could sell the engine and suspension for that haha
if it was me i would pick up a vts engine, ecu and loom off of a forum for about £300 and convert it (drop straight in) will be a perfect back lane blaster then.
Im going to get another as a toy one day as i miss my old vts :-(
