Is it wrong to be automatically suspicious of any car that's for sale in Keighly?

Well it's not Middlewich is it!  I'd be running away by now if it was.....

Also, with an AU reg plate, it is very likely that it was an ex-Lotus car. Probably a management car but there are also some ex-test mules about. Unlikely with that low(ish) mileage though. 

Stratton cars are AU plated too.

I wouldn't buy it, but yes, on the face of it it's very well priced.

Why wouldn't you buy it?

I'd want that front plate relocated to the proper location, and hope they've not drilled holes in the front clam!

I know nothing about the dealer, but on the face of it, it looks very nice! (apart from the front plate)

Interesting, didn't know that! Mines an AU.  The log book tells me that the first registered keeper is 'Gorden Murray'.  I wonder if he was involved / working with Lotus at some point...

Just my (possibly wrong!) Scooby sense. It seems a little too cheap compared to others but definitely worth a test drive.

It’s getting to that sort of mileage when it could possibly need a clutch if it’s not already been replaced.

The other car on auto trader is at Targa Florio which is over £32k but it does seem a good example and has all packs plus aftermarket tubular exhaust ? 

Could be over your budget  ?

@Foxy? That’ll be an Evora and 2 or maybe 3 Type 116! (not sure his wife knows though since one is hidden away😂😂)

He’s a greedy tw@t!

I’ve just found out my car was an ex demo/ ex press car! 😮

Scroll half down the page there is video of a demo day event.

At 25 secs in the orange Evora is mine! 

Im sure it was driven very calmly and smoothly around Silverstone circuit. 😉😂
