Hi All,
Potential new owner here. A 2nd car that has come onto my radar is a 2008 QP that only has 48k miles but appears (according to MOT and HPI check) not to have been driven since 2018 - it was also last serviced in 2018.
Garage says it will put a full MOT on it, but I guess that doesn’t really mean much. How do these cars take to being left undriven for so long and what is the likelihood of major recommissioning costs?
Also I note that the central display has a message saying “Manual Method Unavailable” any idea what this implies?, car has a ZF gearbox but no flappy paddles.
Any input is much appreciated.
Many thanks,
Tim
