i don't know how to comment but it is a X reg car, already 10 years old.
2000 sounds steep to me unless all consummable has been recently replace (included belt, tyres, disc and pad, clutch)
there are loads of choices in autotrader with around 1.5K

depends on what dealers to be fair lol
i always think they just make up the MOT and put in veggie oil instead of engine oil when they said they have "service" your car lol
