Never heard of MIA before so a bit of googling tells me it was made in France and went out of business 10 years ago. Best of luck getting parts. Also the reg 35EV is not on the DVLA vehicle checker.

How about this car - 2010 SLK (cheap, cheap) £2,500. Down The Valleys with 'slight rust bubbles'

[edit] just read the MoT record - £2500 is more than it's probably worth, at least without a visit and a good tap with a toffee hammer. Looks to be crispy with needy suspension. Meh.

I'm sure I recognise this car and registration but can't work out where. It either belonged to someone I knew in about 1998, I've seen it on another website at some point or I'm completely mistaken and I've never seen it before.

Don't see many of these nowadays, especially in this condition.  Nice colour, too.  Looks like a bit of a bargain for someone:

Hey up, there's no K-reg estates, so this is about the earliest one you could get, + GLX auto with blue interior. Cor. Find Another (should be in caps)

Though the 'autobox over-revving' might be a minor point or as they are a bit chocolate, imminent calamity.

You'd think so, but a fool and his money are easily parted.

I get this too. She's right though, one of my fleet is 100 miles away in my sister's garage, one is in a £60/month lockup and one is on our driveway which is only just big enough for two cars.

Its a problem with messenger I think. I have had it where once you send message the link goes dead. If its the blue Punto the ad is still live when I click the link

Yup  - now I'm on the laptop I can see that the ad is still live and also that my laboriously typed message has been sent. 
See what 'appens.

you should still be able to see messages and any replies on your phone through the messenger bit, its just the link to the ad seems to go dead. all very odd

MOT failure. 140,000 miles. Starts and drives OK. Bodywork mostly OK but with rust on both doors. Have enjoyed the car for 7 years but too many issues for its MOT. 

Fail list isn't so bad tho for someone handy on the spanners

Thats cheap! and the MOT history looks very decent

https://www.check-mot.service.gov.uk/results?registration=LP61JCZ

although its got a rather amusing advisory , I know you can get quite a few people in one, dont think it makes it a bus mind LOL

 

@warren t claim/ @chancer

if you dont mind me asking whats your thoughts on this?

to me its got the feeling of too good to be true, especially with the low milage 

but if you think it might be genuine, I might call up that insurance company that I was able to get a quote from a couple months back, and take things from there
