Impressive mileage - can’t see the listing myself, any chance it was a typo and mileage was 44393 - that would have been a result for winning bidder !

Most likely the cheapest I will find here and with that mileage there must be plenty of history too.

 

[conaero]

On its eight £4k clutch....only kidding, it must have done a few though.

 

[Wack61]

Imagine the fuel bill over that mileage

But you can change the engine and have a low miler again. You wanted a project

I bet the pence per mile/km is a lot lower than most, infinitesimally than @safrane, eh Peter??!
One has to assume lots of longer runs so the clutches may have lasted longer?

There is an Italian car with a quarter of the mileage of the one above in Italy
Reasonably priced and may even benefit from milder climate and from the proximity to the factory but not sure about the colour combo.

I take it you only want LHD Phil as there are 10 RHD from 6k to 10k with miles from 39k to 100k on AT. Would it not be better getting one of those and getting it into France or is it a pain getting it French registered ?

 

[philw696]

Cheers all.
Buying cars over here has proven to be a breeze and being a large one it needs to be LHD really.
I look all the time in the UK and the fact you can get a QPV for around 6K amazes me.
Over for Christmas so going to view a cheap one to see how bad they might be.

Probably... the last 4 years for the GS is likely to be >£12 per mile.

That looks very decent, paint the wheels and it’ll look pretty classy. Relatively low mileage too and Italian so probably not a lot of rust. Surely that’s a good candidate @philw696 ?

Totally agreed with the wheels a priority as I actually like the interior.

Have you seen the dark red one on Autotrader Phil at £9995. Looks lovely also.

Can't believe how much value for money they are Andy.

Absolutely Phil. For someone like you who can work on them there is far less risk as well unlike us mere mortals.
