Good evening Paul, thank you for your comprehensive response. I went to view it today, absolutely lovely car. Took it for a spin. Have never drove a type 3 before and loved every minute! However, i was reluctant to part with my cash. Not sure why really, think i need to shop around and get a good idea of what's out there. Think I've made a few mistakes with cars in the past. It was in good condition, but was starting to look a little tired. He was asking for 4000, which i felt was a good price. Just didn't want to have to start spending anymore straight away.
Anyway, thanks again Paul for your info. Much appreciated.
Cheers
Paul
