This maybe the purchase
If you go on ebay it has been sold twice, both without reserve being on the sale page. Think it went for £8k first time round and then £10.6k on 22nd oct.
There was no reserve shown on the last sale so i would be a bit cautious and i know there was no reserve shown on the first.
If you want to go and have a look there's no harm.
I would have a look at the ebay advert first cause it says there's a warning light always on.

He told me the first time it went for £12,600 and the last time it went to around £10,600, he did tell me the traction control light is on because of the DRC replacement, and it does not affect the cars drive in anyway, the chap seems very honest about the cars description, and has also agreed to carry out a RAC inspection if a deal is donechunky79 wrote:If you go on ebay it has been sold twice, both without reserve being on the sale page.

The TC/ESP warning light on could be caused by a multitude of sins including
1) Both MAF's disconnected - Why?
2) ESP/ABS issue
3) Steering position sensor fault
4) other?
If you do go for a look, I'd be looking to ensure the ESP is switchable as he may just have taken the bulb out. It comes on at startup, and goes out once running, pressing the switch illuminates the ESP warning light to show it is not active.
The car has ESP for a reason. To say it does not affect the cars drive maybe fine whilst toddling around. Try tramping on, on a wet/leafy/icy backroads though....then say it doesn't matter...
Be careful.
