Should I avoid this or take it for a drive? Looks a bit underpriced for the spec on it.

No its about right maybe just a tad underpriced.

I've always lived by the saying if it sounds to good to be true it usually is

Thanks, from what I have been looking at that's the rough price for a standard car with around 100k on. I might take a look and as long as receipts are there to back up work carried out I'll see if can barter slightly.

Just don't want my pants pulled down with regards to pricing, milleage etc

Definately not underpriced!

Id buy it for 2.5k for sure

Yeah it's got a hybrid, but no coilovers just 60mm on springs... No mention of lots of other bits you'd want, brakes anti roll bars etc. priced about right for 140k miles

It will save you 2k on mods alone. Bargain if it drives nice and isn't

I was looking at this the ither day, been on Gumtree for a couple of weeks. About 4 i think. Looks nice. I was even considering going to have a look at it as its only down the road.

There another nice one on Gumtree. A silver one with Seat Surgeons retrim, thats quite near to Cardiff.

There was also another nice one on Ebay. Silver, plate started with NG. That was in Abergavenny. I'll see if i can find links.

I'll see if I can get the black one for 2.5, if not I'm sure I can hold on a little longer until another pops up.

I'm not really in any rush, there's nout wrong with the megane, I just have a soft spot for the vrs.

In an ideal world i would like a choice of either red or black, silver would be a last resort unless it was of great spec

I think as long as its got a good service history and it checks out on hpi it's worth having a look
