Description:  We've owned this car for 22 years but now need to sell due to downsizing.  It's
in original condition, with original blue/black upholstery looking tired in places.  We did a refurb 10 years ago and had the hood re-lined and rust attended to at that point. It's a good starter and runs well.The odometer hasn't worked for a while now.  We have MOT certificates throughout our ownership.  In 2003 we bought it with 144,566.  in 2010 it was 151360, 2015 it was 152912.  The last reliable reading was in 2018 at 157,007, then the odometer broke.  In 2019 it read 257,438 and back down to 45,812 and then in 2021 it read 560,235.  In 2024 it read 560,410.  Given that we have never done more than 2000 miles per year we currently estimate the mileage at 170,000.  As I say, we have all the MOT paperwork that records all the mileage.  Since listing this, it has come to our attention that before we bought it over 20 years ago, the car was a category C write off. We had no idea about this when we bought it (pre DVLA digital records).  We don't know what the damage was but it is structurally sound and drives normally without pulling to the left or right.
