THe story behind the car is that it belongs to some girl and the mother is selling it on her behalf. I said to her that If I were looking to buy it I'd want at least £200 off the asking price. The mother ummed and ahhed saying the girl neded the cash to buy another car. I told her all the bits the car needed meant it wansn't worth a grand. After all it needs a new windscreen, the 4WS sorted, potentially leaking brake fluid, and the body work looked at.

TBH I would give this a wide berth, it didnt have a lot of oil in it, a key sign of a Lude not being looked after.

low brake fluid wasn't just because the rear brakes are so worn down then?

if this was more local id consider £700 but its gunna cost me over £100 to collect it and then drive it 6 hours home and with questionable 4ws not to mention brakes etc id be worried about getting home.
Thanks again Merlin

Deffo not. There was something up with the braking system.

Looks in very poor condition. I always worry that my car isn't worth much value wise. Although it doesn't have the Motegi Kit it is an A8, 103k miles and heated leather. Must be worth like 5k

anycar is only worth what some else is willing to pay but 5k sounds reasonable
