I bought a 144,000 mile white 318is about a month ago with 6 months MOT for Ԛ£875.
It's pretty tidy (a couple of superficial bits of grot), and has the 15's + the sport rear spoiler. It also came with every MOT and a massive wad of reciepts
For Ԛ£1500, it'd have to be a minter.
Trust in father!! About a grand sounds cool, and 1200 tops!!
