I bought the car at the beginning of May last year with just under 61,000 miles on the clock. It has been my daily since and now has 84,503 on the clock.
The service history book was last stamped at 60,311 just before I bought it. In the past year I have looked after the car myself- oil & filters have been changed regularly- plenty of receipts to prove.
File full of receipts, old mots, tax discs, factory recall certificates, service sheets, service books/handbooks.
The MOT expired at the beginning of July and I took the car off the road for a month to carry out a few jobs before it's MOT-
New parts just fitted last week..

I recently fitted one of Fred666's carpet sets. This carpet set makes it much more pleasurable to drive if you plan on using the car every day as I have. It quietens it down immensely inside and adds warmth to the cockpit- so much that I can actually feel the OEM heater doing it's job.

Engine
EGR Removed otherwise it's as it came from the factory.

Bad Points
Some wear to the bolster on the driver's seat. Has been restitched so doesn't look too bad.
Front end could do with a respray if you want it as shiny as the rest of the car. It has quite a few chips but I have touched them up and it's not too unsightly...
Some marks to the door cards from the seat belt getting jammed when closing the door...
FULL MOT (It passed on Friday)
Taxed until end of September
