Too good to be true

[nobblebonce]

Found a monaco blue 172 - 02 reg
it has 68k on the clock - its up for sale at £4350 or £4850

Is this too cheap - it says it has history at 12k 24k etc all the way up to 60k

would you say its too good to be true and would the mileage put you off

Ha it had the cambelt done? if not then thats £500 on top! Go have a look mate, if it looks clean, and has FSH that all adds up ok then go for it! Mileage wouldnt put me off as its not particularly high for the age.

My 182 is on 60k
More miles they have the quicker they get.

That 172 needs its cambelt doing in 4,000 miles i imagine.

i know a bloke who owns a garage so i could get the cambelt done for a good price, only problem is its 40miles away - dont really wanna travel if its a s**t heap lol

40 miles is hardly a long way to travel for a rare-ish car. I travelled 300 for mine.

I paid 4850 for mine 10months ago with 54k on it.

You've gotta see it mate. Cambelt needs doing nowish though as its 5 years old. If you dont want to travel get lots of photo's?
