Looks to be detailed nicely but you can see it used to be quite dusty or something inside, picture 24 of the rear audio controls is quite grey underneath the fascia and they haven’t bothered cleaning that up. Same with the door card where the speaker part is fastened.
Close ups of leather makes it look to be in very good shape.
Even to us Finns it looks a bit pricey for what they’re asking but 50000 km is not quite low
Ooops - so not even a V8

Seems I've been driving around with a sticking rear caliper. Changed it tonight after leaving work. Had to use a pry bar. Hoping for a great MPG increase on my journey up to Wales tomorrow.

Why would anyone mind LHD...?
It’s certainly a nice looking vehicle and the mileage is very low for a 6 year old....

I had a LHD 90 once and to be honest it wasn't that bad to get used to really
Only ballache was Maccy D's drive through and the automatic ticket barriers in car parks!

My mate had a Mustang, travelling as a passenger was a eye popping experience on some roads
Big left hand drive vehicles and narrow roads are not a great combination !

I had a Chevvy Camero for a few years and never found LHD much of a problem, parts however could be a challenge.
I did read somewhere on this site that the 5.0 V8 in the D4 is not considered as reliable as the 4.4 AJ engine in the D3
