It's a 10 year old car i think you're being a bit unrealistic to have such low mileage by now, it's already quite a lot under average mileage.

The two pathetic pictures are enough to put me off. How anyone thinks they can sell a car for decent money with an advert like that is beyond me.
And then the bit at the bottom.....these are still going for over 9 grand......
If that's the case why are you only asking 8 ???

I'd pick a motorway queen with a few miles over a town chariot with half the miles every time.
At one point me and the wife both had a Fabia VRS each. Mine had spent much of it's life on the motorway with 160k miles under it's belt and hers had 17k miles at 7 years old. Guess which one was the "way" better car. Clue = The low miler got traded in
