75k on the clock with FSH. Seems like a nice example.On for £7k.

Be interested to know what should I be looking out for on this car on inspection?

Read a little bit about these which highlights the Auto box as a weak spot and a very costly replace.

Anything else likely to go wrong at this age/mileage?

Any advice on that much appreciated.

I take it from the dearth of responses, these arent the most reliable. Best avoided probably then.

Actually they are quite strong. The rear springs tend to have a short life span -3-5 years but are inexpensive and not difficult to change. The only other trouble spots I experienced on mine with 175k was the DISA valve and I had to replace the front drive shaft.

Solid performer with great road handling/feel, probably even better than the 07 I replaced it with.
