Thanks for the reply. How much would you expect it to be worth with tax and mot considering the mileage? I wouldn't normally consider a car without mot and tax but the having not seen any in my price range with less than 140-150k I thought it might be worth a punt.

HI guys, I've just agreed to buy a corrado off a guy down in Poole. I just thought I'd run it by the experts to see if I've got a good deal. Its a 91 H reg 16 V in white, with no Mot or tax, however it only has 71k on the clock and it in far better condition than any of the 16v's I've been to see for around the same price. He was asking 1200 and I've got him down to 1050. It's been off the road for a while but I drove it round a bit and everything feels fealy tight and the mileage is verified by service history. He said if he couldn't sell it now he would put it through the mot and readvertise for 1800 which seems like a lot. From what I can tell it seems very solid and should make it through ok but am I taking a huge risk buying without the Mot? Any helpful advice is greatly appreciated. Dave.
