Default Re: Advice needed...

As HDI says as long as it has a full history it should be a good buy. I tend to be wary of low mileage old cars, often they have only been driven at partial throttle and never really got fully run in. Cars owned by old people from new tend to burn oil and do not seem to want to accelerate.

I would prefer the 2.0 version over the 1.9 they are quite heavy for their size and you will notice the lack of power in the 1.9.
