Sounds like a lot of money for a 10 year old car. Do you know the history? Has anyone had a really good look at it?

Do you know if it's the 8v or 16v version, by any chance? GBP1600 seems a lot:

Nice gesture buying for your grandson, how old is he?

How does he feel about the car, being an estate as opposed to a saloon, does he know?

Your wise enough to find one with a full service history, and in mint condition, not a lot to add to that.

Parts are relatively easy to get, and imagine insurance would be low (not accounting for his age).

I would say, after you have read above, go-for-it.
