I purposely didn't mention that as that particular thread degenerated and was pulled, by the management. NJ may just be selling on behalf of the aforementioned person to give it a more legitimate window?
I think its safe to say that what NJ sells, is not necessarily what NJ owns. However I would like to think that he would have done his homework, before putting his name to it.

True, I do believe SOR is a frequent method that NJ uses to sell. However, in the now pulled thread, w17led did allude to the fact that the car was sold to NJ and that it had been straightforward to deal with him.

Given the number of CSL's that NJ has sold, I agree he would certainly have done his homework on this car and presumably it's a good'un.

It must have been a particularly scenic drive up to Abingdon from Crawley, 900 miles would have really taken in a few sights.....

Who's map are you using? Crawley, South London to Abingdon in Oxford is 88mls. an 1.5hrs thereabouts, or was that additional '0' a typo?
It is but a walk in the park - nevertheless, I shan't be viewing.

If you recall, w17led had a few potential mileages mentioned in his posts / advert for the car, I believe he finally settled at 24,600.

The car was with NJ the next day. Now it's got 25,500 miles.

Perhaps NJ has built in contingency for test drives etc?

Started at 21k, at least I think that was the thread title.

I see, you were pointing out yet another discrepancy in the mileage, in fact it was 24 when advertised on PH so even further away, must have gone via Scotland to Abingdon in that case.

I sold the car to nj.

I took the car in px sold on.

Was only going by what the owner said the mileage was.

Love the speculation, obviously some have so much time on there hands.
