It'll be worth more if you get it through an MOT now, as with it running out in 2 weeks most buyers will assume you're selling as you suspect it will fail....

ive not spoken to Gary yet, how ever I'm only 23 and insurance companies don't like anyone under 25 to have a turbo.

the millage is 93k will go up, 3owners since new. Almost every receipt and history from new.

and as regards to mot i think om.just worrying IF it does fail. I cant see it other than the exhaust. Any ideas where i could borrow or buy a standard exhaust for the mot

My MY99 V5 is for sale at £1595 and lots of history, NEW mot, 6 months Tax, and by all accounts MINT, no parking dinks, scratches, dents or scuffs and drives spot on. It gives you something to benchmark against.

You may find Gary can help at 23.

Seem to recall that being the age, rather than 25, at which he starts to be able to get deals.

Worth a call at the very least.
