If you go to Autotraders web site there is a section where it'll tell you how much you should be paying. There must be other sites like this as well, Which Online maybe.

as good a guide as any.

when it comes to concours quality it depends on how much you are prepared to offer I guess.

I'd agree with the 'little on the cheapside'.

TM I agree Autotrader pricing is optimistic.
I don't wish to sound patrinising but to be honest you should already be able to answer your own question!

But here are a few more for you:-
Private or Trader?
How many owners?
Is it main dealer serviced on the button, or before due?
Does it have invoices, old MOTs?
How long has this guy owned it, months or years?
What rubber is it wearing, OEM, branded or something obscure?
Is it truely a minter?

Finally. Does it compare favourably to the other, at least half dozen, you have seriously considered??

Tick the right boxes it's worth seven.

(If it was a bargain it would already be in someones garage so don't be rushed. As my Gran used to say buy in haste repent at leisure.)
