Make sure it has some service history. A 2 owner 72K Turbo should have a full service history really, maybe not all dealer based, but certainly a full history of some sort.
If it hasn't got the service book and a full history I would give it a miss personally. You cannot be too careful and other cars are out there.

It says its an MY99 but has MY00 alloys, could be worth checking out, MY00 will have interior map lights and it should have approximately 20 stamps for fssh

Colour coded mirrors and handles, say it is an MY00 snap it up if she looks good, check the chassis code, think the 8th letter is a Y on the 00 and an X on the 99 (its on the rear bulkhead below the windscreen

Blimey 15 posts in to an "opinions on this car please" thread and not a naysayer in sight! Surely that's an all-time S-Net record! FWIW I think it looks good too at that price. Let us know if you get to view it up close. Maybe you can get the vendor to e-mail you a load more photos (engine, interior, service book stamps etc) prior to visiting.
