    That ad is a bit short on info. Also why on earth does he not MOT it?

    I would be wary of a car with no MOT, it would only take an hour of his time to take it for a test.

    this might sound a bit snooty, but it always puts me off when people cant even write in proper language! "Aint been drove in 3 year". Just makes me think dodgy geezer.

    But if it is bonafide, would be an excellent bargain!

    What can be too wrong to fail the MOT??


    As you say a good price, If not a scam.
