Lovely looking car - I think the stated mileage of '1,099,500 Miles' might be wrong.

Well spotted Leigh. I only noticed the mistype myself after I had posted the advert and now can’t work out how to change it. Fortunately, the correct mileage of 109,500 is shown in the description so hopefully any body looking will realise that it hasn’t actually travelled to the moon and back :oops:

I rather liked the idea of a million mile car
