Don't assume low miles = essentially new, could have been someones track day toy for 5 years for all we know, equally could be a nice example!
I agree but that's a different debate. I am starting with the premise that you take the advert at face value and then view the car and owner (possibly speak to Croydon Renault!). A 5,000-miler should have its original PE2s, shouldn't be peppered with chips, very little corrosion on the dampers, clean seat belts etc.
However, asking whether a car apparently as part of a "collection" with 5,000 miles on it has had its dampers done seems a little OTT. Especially as some existing Trophy owners seem to be asking the questions (do they want a second one?).
I'm not having a go at anyone but I assume we want to see as many Trophys registered on the forum.
Trust me, when the right buyer comes along, it should sell in no time.
