The Number plate is MAS IT car has done 32k miles and recently had a clutch.(Located in Surrey)
Wondering if its a good car and if there is anyone who has viewed it or knows of the car.
Thanks in advance for any clarity, here is the link for the ad:

I would agree. Ok not an LE but fabulous condition and low mileage. Needs snapping up

Private seller needs a sale. I bet these are a right mofo to sell privately. Looks fabulous. Lovely colour combo. Would be a great addition to the forum.

Non LE cars are normally c£1500 less than the equivalent higher spec cars, so as long as the history stacks up (ie one per year) its a little below price; but if the history is more patchy then it is on the current money for a private sale.

My biggest concern with that car is that the "Auto" light is on. Isn't that a user-selectable fault code?

Saw that last night and thought it was cheap. Must be an issue or a distressed sale.

There's a few bargain priced GS's available at the moment I notice.

Looks a great buy subject to the usual checks. I did see an 18K miles GS recently and, frankly, I have seen better condition 78K mile cars so don't assume the condition will be comensurate with miles. MOT history pretty clean though.

Its too cheap, I'll bet theirs a reason, I know GS's can vary quite a lot in price but a decent one will still fetch mid/upper 20's

The Nettuno one at £25,089 on AT was sold many moons ago by ADG and looks like it has been with the one owner since.
It's lovely.

Thanks Guys for al the responses.
I already own one and am thinking of having another and always wanted one in that colour.
My own car is 19k miles and immaculate including the underside which you can eat your dinner off. I may go and take a look at some point if I do I will report back.

Thanks again for all the responses!

If you can eat your dinner off the underside then I suggest you turn your car the correct way up. Or is that why you need another..?

HAHA only eating dinner off it on very special occasions!
I wanted a slightly higher mileage car that I can potentially use more and also potentially have some of the exhaust mods like X pipe etc. I don't want my current car to deviate from OEM spec tbh

OK its not quite the same price but mine comes complete with x pipe, Larini back box ( I have all original parts too), new clutch and a very long list of other stuff!!! She is in immaculate condition, Just had a fresh MOT with no advisories and a full alignment at Sportsitalia.

You could eat your dinner of the underneath, as long as you don't mind a bit of Dinitrol sauce :)

Just a quick update. I spoke with the owner and the car sounded cherished and well looked after. He had owned it for over 10 years. He had someone looking at it today and said they were very keen, he said he would call me if it didn't sell. I assume it has sold as the car has gone from autotrader.
I hope the new owner enjoys it.

Thanks for all the replies.
