Interesting 172 exclusive forsale

Just come across this but it’s on a 2002 - 02 plate.. Is that possible?

Here’s the advert,

184440701685

 

[Martin_172]

it would have to have sat for 2years before being registered, it was registered on 16 may 2002 according to its mot history.

I'm shocked someone has bided £2k on that already tbh after a quick look it looks like:

• Its had a full respray which can be seen in the pics is atrocious, and also mentioned in the advert. My question would be why did it need one in the first place with only 30k on the clock!
• The rear bumper is warped
• no numbered kick plates
• it appears to have been parked in a bush so is probably rotten

assuming you wanted to restore it to be a "low miles minter" as everyone seems to go mad for it probably needs £2k in bodywork/paint, £700 service, £300 in wheel refurb and tyres that's before you get to any rust, brakes, exhaust, dampness etc from sitting about. cant see their being any cash in that!

Probably bought by some chopper who thinks because it's a limited edition it's the next big money retro-classic.

Soon see it up for sale, "Rare investment opportunity" £10k ONO.
